I`m running axial multi-stage compressor performance curve simulation and seems like I need to use Sutherland law to get closer results to experimental data in stall and surge regions.



Since I have no experience in changing the Material Data for Ideal Gas I`m afraid to make some mistakes. So I would be glad if someone has enough experience to share it with me.


I`ve checked ANSYS Help and have found next values for Sutherland Law:


Ref. Temperature 273 K
Ref. Viscosity 1.716e-05 kg/ms
Sutherlands Constant 110.4 K
Temperature Exponent 1.5



Can anyone confirm these values?
Thanks
