Hello,

Are there any means to compute properties of produced fluids (assumed water-cut, API gravity, black oil model) for a range of pressures and temperatures? I need to use the viscosity, density and sp. heat values for a CFD simulation.
 
Yes, yes there is.

I don't know what CFD engine you're using, but most of them have fluid properties and flash calculations built in. If not, then something like Hysys or ProMax is pretty much required to get meaningful data from water cut and gravity.
