C312 – Reynolds number calculation
Description
This calculates Reynolds number based on options for flowrate/velocity and viscosity/density.
Options
Calculate from
- Mass flow rate
- Volume flow rate
- Flow velocity
Choose from available flow/velocity input.
Viscosity
- Dynamic
- Kinematic
Choose from viscosity input.
Calculation
The calculation uses one of the following flowrate/velocity, pipe dimension and viscosity relationships to calculate Reynolds number.
| Where | ||
|---|---|---|
| Re | = | Reynolds number |
| qm | = | Mass flowrate |
| qv | = | Volume flowrate |
| V | = | Velocity |
 | = | Density |
 | = | Dynamic viscosity |
 | = | Kinematic viscosity |
