The BETA constant for Sutherland's law in the 1976 US Standard Atmosphere is off by 12 orders of magnitude. The exponent is "-6", not "+6". This fixes the viscosity computation.

Fixed BETA from 1.458e6 to 1.458e-6

Hi @wolfetp94, thanks a lot for spotting this and fixing it. I unfortunately cannot merge your PR because it includes a merge commit that I do not want to see appear on the main branch and misses a changelog entry, but your commit is included in #385.
