Abstract
The Yvon-Born-Green pair correlation function theory is discussed from the viewpoint of its role as theoretical data input for the Rice-Allnatt liquid transport theory. The general behavior of the Rice-Allnatt theory is shown to compare favorably with that of the square-well transport theory of Davis, Rice, and Sengers, although the former is not as quantitative. The predictive ability of the Rice-Allnatt theory is improved by a systematic adjustment of the Lennard-Jones parameters used in the YBG pair correlation functions, based on the critical point locus.Keywords
