This report summarizes work performed during the period December 1, 1984 and February 28, 1985. During this quarter, a literature search was conducted to identify available data for dilute-gas thermal conductivity and dense-gas viscosity. After entering the additional data into the existing data bank and evaluating the data for quality, a literature search was conducted to study and compare various existing correlations for dilute-gas thermal conductivity. An evaluation of various correlations for dilute-gas thermal conductivity is presented in Section 2. A novel fluidity factor approach was also examined for its capability to correlate dense-fluid viscosity. Details of this methodology are presented in Section 3. 25 refs., 3 figs., 3 tabs.
