Transport Properties of Lithium Plasma

Transport properties of lithium plasmas in local thermodynamic equilibrium at pressures from 0.0001 atm to 1 atm, and temperatures from 1000 K to 40000 K are presented. The calculations of transport coefficients are carried out using the Chapman–Enskog method. The evolutions of transport coefficients with temperature and pressure are reported and discussed. Comparisons of these values in the low temperature region with previously reported data show reasonable agreement.
