Example. Calculating water viscosity
Input data
Calculate water viscosity at 3176 psia and 165°F?
Solution
Nomenclature
- = coefficients
- = pressure correction, res bbl/STB
- = water salinity or weight percent solids, %
- = pressure, psia
- = Temperature, °F
- = water viscosity, cP
- = water viscosity at 1 atm, cP
