Abstract
The shear viscosity of fluids exhibits an anomalous enhancement in the close vicinity of the critical point. A detailed experimental study of the viscosity of steam in the critical region has been reported by Rivkin and collaborators. A reanalysis of the experimental data indicates that the behavior of the viscosity of steam near the critical point is similar to that observed for other fluids near the critical point. An interpolating equation for the viscosity of water and steam is presented that incorporates the critical viscosity enhancement.
