    This document provides the solution to estimating the viscosity of nitrogen gas at 68°F and 1000 psig. The critical properties of nitrogen are obtained from tables, including the critical temperature, pressure, and viscosity. These are used to calculate the reduced temperature and pressure. The reduced viscosity is determined from a graph based on the reduced values. This is then used along with the critical viscosity to calculate the actual viscosity, which is converted to the desired units of lbm/ft·s. The estimated viscosity of nitrogen under these conditions is 1.4 × 10−5 lbm/ft·s.

    Problem 1A.1
    Estimation of dense-gas viscosity. Estimate the viscosity of nitrogen at 68°F and 1000 psig
    by means of Fig. 1.3-1, using the critical viscosity from Table E.1. Give the result in units of
    lbm /ft · s. For the meaning of “psig,” see Table F.3-2.

    Answer: 1.4 × 10−5 lbm /ft · s

    Solution

    From Table E.1 on page 864 we look up some facts about nitrogen gas N2 , namely the critical
    temperature Tc , the critical pressure pc , and the critical viscosity µc :
    g
    Tc = 126.2 K pc = 33.5 atm µc = 180 × 10−6 .
    cm · s
    In order to calculate the reduced temperature Tr and the reduced pressure pr , we use the formulas,
    T p
    Tr = and pr = .
    Tc pc
    To use them, though, we have to make the units consistent, so convert 68°F into K and 1000 psig
    (pounds per square inch gage pressure) into atm. Use the formula,
    5
    K = (F + 459.67),
    9
    to calculate the temperature in Kelvin: T = 293.15 K. From Table F.3-2 on page 869, we find
    that 1 psig = 6.8046 × 10−2 atm, so

    ×
    6.8046 × 10−2 atm
    p = 1000 
    psig = 68.046 atm.
    1psig
    

    Thus,
    293.15 K 68.046 
    atm
    
    Tr = ≈ 2.32 and pr =  ≈ 2.03.
    126.2 K 33.5 
    atm
    Now that we know Tr and pr , we can use the graph on page 22 to determine µr , the reduced
    viscosity.

    Figure 1: Use Fig. 1.3-1 in the text to determine µr .

    We see that µr ≈ 1.15. The relationship between the viscosity µ and µr is


    µ
    µr = ,
    µc
    so  g  g
    µ = µr µc ≈ 1.15 180 × 10−6 = 2.07 × 10−4 .
    cm · s cm · s
    To convert this to the desired units, use the conversion factor in Table F.3-4 on page 870,
    1 g/cm · s = 6.7197 × 10−2 lbm /ft · s.

    g  6.7197 × 10−2 lb m
    lbm
    µ ≈ 2.07 × 10−4  × g
    ft·s
    ≈ 1.39098 × 10−5
    cm · s
     1 cm·s
     ft · s
    
    Because of 68°F in the problem statement, we round to two significant figures. Therefore, the
    viscosity of nitrogen gas is
    lbm
    µ ≈ 1.4 .
    ft · s
