Studies in Newtonian Flow. I. The Dependence of the Viscosity of Liquids on Temperature

Doolittle, Arthur K.·1951·Journal of Applied Physics

Abstract

It is shown that the Walther and Andrade equations, while very satisfactory for moderate ranges of temperature, are not adequate to define the dependence of the viscosity of liquid normal paraffins on temperature over extended ranges. One method of developing a viscosity-temperature relationship is presented that gives equations defining this dependence with satisfactory validity. The purpose of this paper is to show that the precise dependence of the viscosity of liquids on temperature is complicated. This is in contrast to the relatively simple relation for the precise dependence of the viscosity of liquids on free-space which will be presented in subsequent papers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
