  In this paper we study the thermopower of a quantum dot connected to two
leads in the presence of Kondo correlation by employing a modified second-order
perturbation scheme at nonequilibrium. A simple scheme, Ng's ansatz [Phys. Rev.
Lett. {\bf 76}, 487 (1996)], is adopted to calculate nonequilibrium
distribution Green's function and its validity is further checked with regard
to the Onsager relation. Numerical results demonstrate that the sign of the
thermopower can be changed by tuning the energy level of the quantum dot,
leading to a oscillatory behavior with a suppressed magnitude due to the Kondo
effect. We also calculate the thermal conductance of the system, and find that
the Wiedemann-Franz law is obeyed at low temperature but violated with
increasing temperature, corresponding to emerging and quenching of the Kondo
effect.
