Elasticity Number
Elasticity number is proportional to { (elastic force) / (inertial force) } and is used in momentum transfer in general and viscoelastic flow calculations in particular. It is normally defined in the following form :
Where: |
r |
= |
Pipe/conduit radius |
mu |
= |
Viscosity |
rho |
= |
Density |
theta |
= |
relaxation time |
