Abstract
The excess thermal conductivity and viscosity of fluid mixtures are examined on the basis of Thorne's extension of Enskog's dense hard-sphere gas transport theory. The results show good correspondence between theory and experiment for thermal conductivity for which the majority of systems exhibit a negative excess conductivity. Agreement of experiment with theory in the case of viscosity is not as complete.
