Abstract

The viscosity of saline water is a crucial parameter for fluid flow systems, including desalination. Heat transfer is also a boundary layer phenomenon strongly affected by viscosity. Viscosity is a thermophysical property having an important role in determining the transport properties of water. This chapter explains the thermodynamic approaches, multicomponent models, correlation, and data used to estimate viscosity at various salinity, temperature, and pressure values. Farther, the calculated viscosity values from the correlations and methods are assessed against the experimental data of seawater. Some correlations and methods are recommended based on their accuracy and operating conditions. Besides, the codes used for the investigated viscosity methods are presented.
