Transport coefficients in composites

Abstract

The Maxwell approach from electrostatics is applied for calculation of transport coefficients in composites. The viscosity of a dilute emulsion is obtained as a function of the volume fraction of dispersed phase. The derived new formula is asymptotically correct and more general than the linear relationships usually used. The method is applied also for description of the influence of fluctuations on the transport coefficients.
