Abstract A dislocation model for the shear viscosity of water is proposed, based upon the dislocation theory of melting and liquid state. This model, studied extensively within the last years in relation to phase transitions in two-dimensional systems, makes rigorous use of the similarity between the structure of a liquid and that of a crystalline solid. Viscous flow in water due to slip of dislocation loops is proposed as an alternative point of view to the hole theories and the cluster models of hydrogen bonded molecules. The model correctly yields the temperature dependence of the viscosity at normal pressure between melting and boiling point.
