An effective pair potential for the modified Lennard-Jones (LJ) (12-6) model with embedded point dipole and linear quadrupole is expressed in the LJ (12-6) form. This theory is employed to estimate the shear viscosity ξ of the modified LJ (12-6) fluid with µ * = µ/(εσ3 ) = 2 for different range of damping factor K. These TP's decrease due to the polar moments. This deviation decreases with the increase of damping factor K.
