Detailed Description

Base class to handle transport property evaluation in a mixture.

In a mixture, the mixture transport properties will generally depend on the contributions of each of the standard state species transport properties. Many composition dependencies are possible. This class, LiquidTranInteraction, is designed to be a base class for the implementation of various models for the mixing of standard state species transport properties.

There are two very broad types of transport properties to consider. First, there are properties for which a mixture value can be obtained through some mixing rule. These are obtained using the method getMixTransProp(). Viscosity is typical of this. Second, there are properties for which a matrix of properties may exist. This matrix of properties is obtained from the method getMatrixTransProp(). Diffusion coefficients are of this type. Subclasses should implement the appropriate one or both of these methods.
