What is Reynolds Number?

The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid which is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.

How to Calculate General form of Drag Coefficient?

General form of Drag Coefficient calculator uses Drag Coefficient = 24/Reynold Number to calculate the Drag Coefficient, The General form of Drag Coefficient formula is defined as the 24 per reynolds number. The drag coefficient is a measure of the effectiveness of a streamline aerodynamic body shape in reducing the fluid resistance to the forward motion of a vehicle. Drag Coefficient is denoted by C_D symbol.

How to calculate General form of Drag Coefficient using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for General form of Drag Coefficient, enter Reynold Number (Re) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the General form of Drag Coefficient calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1200 = 24/0.02.
