The paper re-analyzes the results of earlier, very precise measurements viscosity water at essentially atmospheric pressure. This is done in terms a new, theoretically-based equation for operation capillary viscometer rather than semi-empirical equations used by original authors. new analysis eliminates possible systematic errors and permits establishment realistic error bounds its role as standard reference substance viscosity. latter are smaller those embodied most recent International...

The paper contains new, representative equations for the viscosity and thermal conductivity of carbon dioxide. are based in part upon a body experimental data that have been critically assessed internal consistency agreement with theory whenever possible. In case low-density at high temperatures, all available shown to be inconsistent theoretical expectation therefore abandoned favor prediction. Similarly, liquid-phase has predicted owing small extent poor quality information. same phase...

When representative equations for the viscosity of carbon dioxide were published in 1990, it was recognized that, owing to inconsistencies among available experimental liquid data which could not be resolved, new measurements necessary. Since then, two sets have been performed and is appropriate revise order improve their performance region. In previous work, excess represented by separate equations, one gas phase other, a provisional one, phase. Both joined blending function. present whole...
