This work investigates the link between residual entropy and viscosity based on wide-ranging, highly accurate experimental and simulation data. This link was originally postulated by Rosenfeld in 1977, and it is shown that this scaling results in an approximately monovariate relationship between residual entropy and reduced viscosity for a wide range of molecular fluids (argon, methane, CO 2 , SF 6 , refrigerant R-134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane), refrigerant R-125 (pentafluoroethane), methanol, and water), and a range of model poten-arXiv:1809.05682v1 [physics.chem-ph]
