Bingham Number
Bingham number is proportional to { (yield stress) / (viscous stress) } and is used in momentum transfer in general and flow of bingham plastics calculations in particular. It is normally defined in the following form :
Where: |
gc |
= |
Dimensional constant |
L |
= |
Characteristic length |
mu |
= |
Viscosity |
tau_y |
= |
Stress |
V |
= |
Velocity |
