Temperature dependence of transport coefficients of simple liquid below 1 k

Abstract

Temperature variation of transport coefficients of liquid argon below temperature of 1 K (in reduced unit) for system of 500 atoms interacting through a Lennard-Jones 6-12 potential using classical molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations has been investigated. The study carried out at two densities, * = 0.60 and * = 0.95. Result shows erratic variations of the shear viscosity in the two lattices structures.

Key Words: Temperature effect, face centred, simple cubic, transport properties, simple liquid.
