Reynolds number - Reynolds number

Japanese: レーノルズ数 - レーノルズすう
Reynolds number - Reynolds number
When an object of representative length L (for example, the diameter of a sphere) is in a flow with viscosity μ, density ρ, and velocity U, the Reynolds number R is defined as R = ρUL/μ. The Reynolds number is extremely important in characterizing flows. When the Reynolds number is small, the flow is orderly (laminar flow), but when the Reynolds number exceeds a critical value (called the critical Reynolds number), the flow transitions to an irregularly fluctuating turbulent flow.

代表的長さLの物体(たとえば球ならば直径)が粘性率μ,密度ρ,速度Uの流れの中にあるとき,レーノルズ数Rは,R=ρUL/μで定義される。レーノルズ数は流れを特徴づけるうえできわめて重要。レーノルズ数が小さい間は整然とした流れ(層流)だが,レーノルズ数が臨界値(臨界レーノルズ数という)を超えると,不規則に変動する乱流に遷移する。
