A quick and accurate determination of the physical properties of seawater represents an important aspect of research dealing with processes that involve wide variations in temperature, pressure, and concentration. The physical data should be cast in a form readily compatible with the development of mathematical models associated with the synthesis and optimization of industrial processes involving heat and mass transfer operations on seawater. In this work, previously reported experimental data pertaining to the variation of seawater physical properties are correlated into simple empirical mathematical forms enabling their straight forward inclusion into mathematical models associated with seawater and brackish water desalination.
