Calculations of the physical properties of water
Thread Content
Now it can be determined by consulting property tables or using some small software. These small software programs are developed using various mathematical formulas. I wonder if anyone has accurate formulas for calculating the physical properties of water, such as its specific volume, viscosity, and latent heat of condensation
Such formulas are thoroughly covered in various manuals, and moreover, all the necessary data is also available; there’s no need to calculate them oneself!
It’s in some manual; could you send it to me? The manual I was looking at contained only data tables; there were no fitting formulas in it.
Volume 21, Issue 6, Journal of Hefei University of Technology (Natural Science Edition), Vol. 21 No. 6, December 1998. A Simple Method for Simulating Property Data Xu Hanqing, Gu Jin, Feng Mamama (Wuxi Light Industry University). Abstract: The property data of unary and binary functions are simulated using the Excel spreadsheet software. The equations used for simulation come from original formulas, chemical thermodynamics, physical chemistry, or empirical models; in most cases, the error between the calculated values and experimental values is less than 1%, thus providing a new practical tool for chemical calculations.

Take a look at this post and download those two books; the properties of most substances are listed there. http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-405402-1-1.html
The \"Basic Data Handbook for Petrochemicals\" contains the parameters of the fitting formulas for the physical properties of various substances. Hai Chuan has this manual.

Just look it up; there’s no need to calculate it yourself
It's also good to write your own program to check material properties; you can learn a lot from it. At the very least, the activity coefficients, eccentricity factors, and so on were carefully checked.
