Jak vypočítat Reynolds Number

Co je Reynolds Number?

Reynolds number predicts flow regime: laminar (smooth, orderly) or turbulent (chaotic, mixing). It's dimensionless and crucial for fluid mechanics analysis.

Vzorec

The calculator applies Re = (ρ × v × L) / η
Re
(ρ × v × L) / η — (ρ × v × L) / η
L
L value — Variable used in the calculation

Průvodce krok za krokem

  1. 1Enter fluid density, velocity, characteristic length, and dynamic viscosity
  2. 2The calculator applies Re = (ρ × v × L) / η
  3. 3Results classify flow and predict behavior

Worked Examples

Vstup
ρ = 1000 kg/m³, v = 0.1 m/s, L = 0.01 m (water in small pipe), η = 0.001 Pa·s
Výsledek
Re = 1000 (laminar)
Smooth, predictable flow

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Confusing characteristic length (diameter for pipes, chord for airfoils)
  • Using kinematic instead of dynamic viscosity

Frequently Asked Questions

What Reynolds numbers indicate turbulence?

Re < 2300 is laminar, 2300-4000 is transitional, Re > 4000 is turbulent in pipes.

Does Reynolds number apply to all fluids?

Yes, it's dimensionless; the same Re value predicts similar flow behavior regardless of fluid type.
