IAPWS R12-08 Water Viscosity Modules

Calculate the dynamic viscosity and kinematic viscosity of water and steam using the IAPWS R12-08 industrial equation (u2 = 1).

The viscosity can be either calculated directly from temperature and density, or from temperature and pressure using IAPWS R7-97 to calculate the density.

Note : There is an anomaly in the calculated density and viscosity close to the critical point. Refer to the help pages for more details (click the utility button on the data bar).
