✦ Synopsis
The viscosities of pure gaseous carbon dioxide and argon +carbon dioxide mixtures have been measured with a capillary flow viscometer. The viscosities are relative to those of argon, in the temperature range 213 to 353 K, and considered accurate to +0.7%. The pure-component viscosities agree closely with previous measurements. The mixture viscosities are used to calculate interaction viscosities and binary diffusion coefficients, which are compared with previous measurements. Interaction viscosities have been calculated, by use of the Mason-Monchick approximation, from the anisotropic pair potential energy functions for the unlike interaction proposed by Pack and his co-workers and by Hough and Howard. Comparison of these calculated interaction viscosities with those derived from our experiments and the higher-temperature measurements of Hobley, Matthews, and Townsend proves to be a powerful discriminant for the proposed anisotropic potential functions.
