Predicting the viscosity of liquid refrigerant blends: comparison with experimental data. Mélanges de frigorigènes liquides: prévision de la viscosité et comparaison avec des données expérimentales
Predicting the viscosity of liquid refrigerant blends: comparison with experimental data. Mélanges de frigorigènes liquides: prévision de la viscosité et comparaison avec des données expérimentales
A method is presented for predicting the viscosity of liquid refrigerant mixtures. The method has no adjustable parameters and, in essence, relies upon the knowledge of the viscosity of the pure components to predict the viscosity of a mixture by means of kinetic theory and rigid-sphere formalism. The predictions have been compared with the available experimental data for a number of refrigerant mixtures. Based on this comparison and previous studies, the accuracy of the proposed method is assessed to be of the order of ±7%.

Abstract
A method is presented for predicting the viscosity of liquid refrigerant mixtures. The method has no adjustable parameters and, in essence, relies upon the knowledge of the viscosity of the pure components to predict the viscosity of a mixture by means of kinetic theory and rigid-sphere formalism. The predictions have been compared with the available experimental data for a number of refrigerant mixtures. Based on this comparison and previous studies, the accuracy of the proposed method is assessed to be of the order of ±7%.
