Abstract
A closed-form approximant is proposed for the crossover function which connects the asymptotic critical behavior of the viscosity of a fluid with the normal behavior of the viscosity away from the critical point. The expression is used to represent the critical viscosity enhancement near the gas-liquid critical point of fluids as a function of temperature and density.Keywords
