A new representation of the viscosity of ethane is presented. The representative equations are based upon a body of experimental data that have been critically assessed for internal consistency and for agreement with theory in the zerodensity limit, vapor phase, and critical region. The representation extends over the temperature range from 100 K to the critical temperature in the liquid phase and from 200 K to the critical temperature in the vapor phase. In the supercritical region, the temperature range extends to 1000 K for pressures up to 2 MPa and to 500 K for pressures up to 60 MPa. The ascribed accuracy of the representation varies according to the thermodynamic state from _+ 0.5 % for the viscosity of the dilute gas near room temperature to +3.0% for the viscosity at high pressures and temperatures. Tables of the viscosity, generated by the relevant equations, at selected temperatures and pressures and along the saturation line, are also provided.
