The valid ionic strengths for the LiCl–H2O, NaCl–H2O, and KCl–H2O systems are 0 to 16.7mol · kg−1, 0 to 6mol · kg−1, and 0 to 4.5mol · kg−1, respectively. Comparison of the model with about 4,150 experimental data points concludes that the average absolute viscosity deviation from experimental data in the above range is within or about 1\% for the LiCl–H2O, NaCl–H2O, and KCl–H2O mixtures, indicating the model is of experimental accuracy. With a simple mixing rule, this model can be extrapolated to predict the viscosity of ternary aqueous alkali-chloride solutions, making it useful in reservoir fluid flow simulation. A computer code is developed for this model and can be obtained from the author: (maoshide@cugb.edu.cn).
