Estimation of the viscosity of a pure liquid

Input(s)

N\mathrm{N}: Avogadro Number (g/mol)(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mol})

h\mathrm{h}: Planck Constant (gcm2/s)\left(\mathrm{g} \mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{s}\right)

V\mathrm{V}: Volume of a Mole of Liquid (cm3/gmol)\left(\mathrm{cm}^{3} / \mathrm{g} \mathrm{mol}\right)

Tb\boldsymbol{T}_{\boldsymbol{b}}: Boiling Point (Centigrade)

T\mathrm{T}: Ambient Temperature (Celsius)

Output(s)

μ\mu: Viscosity of a Pure Liquid (g/(cms))(\mathrm{g} /(\mathrm{cm} \mathrm{s}))

Formula(s)

μ=N h Vexp(3.8TbT)\mu=\frac{\mathrm{N} * \mathrm{~h}}{\mathrm{~V}} * \exp \left(3.8 * \frac{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{T}}\right)
