Reynolds number for porous media

Formula

Reynolds number for porous media formula
Re
Reynolds number for porous media flow
rho
density of the fluid
v
mean velocity of the object relative to the fluid
L
linear dimension (travelled length of the fluid; hydraulic diameter when dealing with river systems)
mu
the dynamic viscosity of the fluid

Formula description

In fluid mechanics, the Reynolds number Re is a dimensionless number that gives a measure of the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces and consequently quantifies the relative importance of these two types of forces for given flow conditions.
