Res. 45(2006) 9211–9223). In the present paper, the corresponding states correlations for reduced viscosity collision integrals were employed to obtain effective unlike interaction potential models for dilute binary mixtures of highly polar molecule ammonia with noble gases.The inverted potentials were fitted to the Morse–Spline–van der Waals(MSV), model potential. The method of least-squares fitting was then applied to identify best consistence force parameters for each ammonia-noble gas mixture, taking advantage of experimental viscosities, diffusion coefficients and thermal conductivities.The proposed potential models were compared with those obtained from other sources, in order to assess the extent of their validity.The potentials were later employed to calculate transport properties of the studied mixtures. Then, results were compared with those reported in the literature, which led to the acceptable agreement.展开更多
