Reynolds number for flow in a pipe or tube(given hydraulic diameter,velocity and kinematic viscosity)
Formula
Dh
hydraulic diameter of the pipe
v
mean velocity of the object relative to the fluid
Formula description
In general, in any flow, layers move at different velocities and the fluid\'s viscosity arises from the shear stress between the layers that ultimately oppose any applied force.
