Water - Prandtl Number vs. Temperature and Pressure
Figures and tables with Prandtl Number of liquid and gaseous water at varying temperarure and pressure, SI and Imperial units.
The Prandtl Number - Pr - is a dimensionless number approximating the ratio of momentum diffusivity (kinematic viscosity) to thermal diffusivity - and is often used in heat transfer and free and forced convection calculations.
The Prandtl number can for calculations be expressed as
Pr = μ cp / k (1)
where
μ = absolute or dynamic viscosity (kg/(m s)), (lbm/(ft h))
cp = specific heat (J/(kg K)), (Btu/(lbm oF))
k = thermal conductivity (W/(m K)), (Btu/(h ft2oF/ft))
Below, Prandtl numbers of water at varying temperatures and 1, 10 and 100 bara (14.5, 145 and 1450 psia) are given in figures and tables.
