Summary 1. 1. The coefficient of viscosity of air has been measured by the comparative transpiration method over the temperature range 23°–850°C. Particular attention has been paid to points raised in criticisms of Williams's work, and the method which he used has been completely vindicated.2. 2. The results show that there is a small but steady deviation from Sutherland's law over the range considered.3. 3. It is suggested that the peculiar results obtained by Williams are due to his method of smoothing experimental values.
