Air properties: Density and Viscosity
Equations to calculate the properties of air
- Density of air (ρ) vs. Temperature (K)
ρ = 360.77819 * T-1.00336
(R2=0.99997)
Unit : Temp(K) and Density (Kg/m3)
- Kinematic viscosity (ν) of air vs. Temperature
ν = -1.1555e-14 * T3 + 9.5728e-11 * T2 + 3.7604e-08 * T – 3.4484e-06
(R2=0.99997)
Unit : Temp(K) and Kinematic viscosity (m2/s)
- Dynamic viscosity (μ) of air vs. Temperature
μ = ν * ρ
Unit : Temp(K) and Dynamic viscosity (Kg / m s)
- Temperature
K = 273. + °C
- Molecular weight of air = 28.75
