GWIS requires fluid Kinematic Viscosity to be entered in the SI unit ( m²/s ) under System|Current System Data. Water Salinity quoted at 2000 ppm = max. recommended for Irrigation. Please refer to the spreadsheet Fluid_Viscosity_Table.xlsx to calculate Water Density as a function of Temperature and Salinity. The sheet also calculates Kinematic Viscosity from Dynamic Viscosity and Density.
