Galileo Number
Galileo number is proportional to { (Re. gravity force) / (viscous force) } and is used in momentum and heat transfer in general and viscous flow and thermal expansion calculations in particular. It is normally defined in the following form :
Where: |
g |
= |
Gravitational acceleration |
D |
= |
Diameter |
mu |
= |
Viscosity |
rho |
= |
Density |
