Reynolds number given Inertia and Viscous Force Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Reynolds Number = Inertia Force/Viscous Force
Re = F_i/μ
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

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.
Inertia Force - (Measured in Newton) - Inertia Force is a force that appears to act on a mass whose motion is described using a non-inertial frame of reference, such as an accelerating or rotating reference frame.
Viscous Force - (Measured in Newton) - The Viscous Force is the force between a body and a fluid (liquid or gas) moving past it, in a direction so as to oppose the flow of the fluid past the object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Inertia Force: 500000 Newton --> 500000 Newton No Conversion Required
Viscous Force: 100 Newton --> 100 Newton No Conversion Required

What is convection?

Convection is the process of heat transfer by the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids. The initial heat transfer between the object and the fluid takes place through conduction, but the bulk heat transfer happens due to the motion of the fluid.

Convection is the process of heat transfer in fluids by the actual motion of matter.
It happens in liquids and gases.
It may be natural or forced.
It involves a bulk transfer of portions of the fluid.
