Abstract
- This paper reviews the available information for the thermal-conductivity enhancement. This enhancement can be represented by a simplified solution of the mode-coupling theory of critical dynamics with two critical amplitudes and one cutoff wave number as fluid-specific parameters. Using corresponding states, these fluid-specific parameters are correlated in terms of their dependence on the acentric factor. A universal representation of the critical enhancement of the thermal conductivity for a large number of molecular fluids is presented.
