Bingham Number
Bingham number is proportional to { (yield stress) / (viscous stress) } and is used in momentum transfer in general and flow of bingham plastics calculations in particular. It is normally defined in the following form :
Where: | ||
gc | = | Dimensional constant |
L | = | Characteristic length |
mu | = | Viscosity |
tau_y | = | Stress |
V | = | Velocity |
