WATER_viscosity_kvisc(): Water kynematic viscosity

About:

Calculate the dynamic viscosity of water.

\begin{equation} \nu = \frac{\mu}{\rho} \end{equation}  

 Where,

• $\nu$, kynematic viscosity - $\frac{m^2}{s}$.
• $\mu$, dynamic viscoty » WATER_viscosity_dvisc() - $Pa \times s$.
• $\rho$, water density » WATER_density_rho() - $\frac{kg}{m^3}$.

Module: WaterProperties



Function: WATER_viscosity_kvisc(t,s)

Definition of variables:

• t, temperature - ºC;
• s, salinity - g/kg

Sample code:

from WaterProperties import *

t = 20. #oC
s = 2.5 #h/kg
kvisc = WATER_viscosity_kvisc(t,s)

print("kvisc:",kvisc,"m2/s")

Result:

kvisc: 1.0016102089e-06 m2/s
