Molecular dynamical calculations of the transport properties of a square-well fluid

By means of the method of computer simulation, the coefficient of viscosity for a system consisting of square-well molecules has been determined at densities up to the critical one. It has been found that the superposition of an attractive well on the hard sphere has a marked influence on the behaviour of the viscosity. It is shown also that the so-called modified Enskog theory (MET) is incapable of describing the behaviour of this system.
