New nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) calculations of the shear viscosity, bulk viscosity, and thermal conductivity are presented. Together with the self-diffusion coefficients obtained from equilibrium MD, the success of the Dymond–Batchinski expressions for the density and temperature dependence of these transport coefficients is demonstrated.The shear viscosity and self-diffusion coefficients are very good probes for the approach point of the solid-to-liquid phase change. The bulk viscosity and thermal conductivity are less useful in this respect.
