Abstract
Tricritical anomalies of transport coefficients of diffusive type in multicomponent fluids are studied theoretically for the thermodynamic model system due to Griffiths (1974). Transport anomalies are characterized by the two critical modes whose decay rates behave as xi -3, xi being the range of correlation of critical fluctuations. Usefulness of the variables having a diagonal susceptibility matrix considered by Tisza (1966), as well as by Gunton and Green (1971) in the present problem is indicated.Keywords
