Dean number formula
Where:\(\large{ De }\) = Dean number \(\large{ \rho }\) (Greek symbol rho) = density of fluid \(\large{ d }\) = diameter \(\large{ \mu }\) (Greek symbol mu) = dynamic viscosity \(\large{ r }\) = radius of curviture of the path of channel \(\large{ Re }\) = Reynolds number \(\large{ v }\) = axial velocity scale |
