Freezing Temperature and Density Scaling of Transport Coefficients.

It is demonstrated that the freezing density scaling of transport coefficients in fluids, similar to the freezing temperature scaling, originates from the quasi-universal excess entropy scaling approach proposed by Rosenfeld. The freezing density scaling has a considerably wider applicability domain on the phase diagram of Lennard-Jones and related systems. As an illustration of its predictive power, we show that it reproduces with an excellent accuracy the shear viscosity coefficients of saturated liquid argon, krypton, xenon, and methane.
