Frequently Asked Questions
The Reynolds number (Re) is a dimensionless quantity used to predict flow patterns in fluid mechanics. It is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces.
Typically, Re < 2300 indicates laminar flow, 2300 ≤ Re < 4000 indicates transitional flow, and Re ≥ 4000 indicates turbulent flow.
Density in kg/m³, velocity in m/s, characteristic length in meters, dynamic viscosity in Pascal-seconds (Pa·s).
