Transport properties (diffusion, thermal diffusion, thermal conductivity and viscosity) of binary mixtures are measurable in experiments, and well-defined in theory, but difficult to compute with high accuracy. In addition to high-accuracy inter-molecular potential energy curves (PECs), a reliable and high-order solution program that compute the properties based on the PECs is required. In this work, we present a computer program called Peng that performs the collision integration numerically, and solves the Boltzmann equation in Chapman-Enskog fashion. The program has been devised to perform both parts of the solution procedure to arbitrary order, so that no hard-coded limitation will prevent a user from computing at higher precision, except the amount of RAM and the required computational time. Peng is well-designed in an Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) fashion, which make the program clear and easy to modify. In addition to the end-user oriented program, Peng is also compiled as a dynamic shared library that may readily be extended and embedded in users' programs.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.03475v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2208.03475v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"peng-a-program-for-transport-properties-of","repo_url":"https://github.com/zhaiyusci/peng","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
