The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid which is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe. Check FAQs

Reynolds Number of Blood in Vessel Formula Elements

Variables
Reynolds Number
The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid which is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.
Symbol: Re
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Blood Density
The Blood Density is the mass per unit volume of blood.
Symbol: ρblood
Measurement: DensityUnit: kg/m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Mean Velocity of Blood
Mean Velocity of Blood is the mean rate of blood flow through a given vessel. Blood flow is the volume of blood flowing through a particular vessel in given interval of time.
Symbol: v
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: mL/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Diameter of Artery
Diameter of Artery is a straight line passing from side to side through the center of a body or figure, especially a circle or sphere.
Symbol: Dartery
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Viscosity of Blood
Viscosity of Blood is a measure of the resistance of blood to flow. It can also be described as the thickness and stickiness of blood.
Symbol: μ
Measurement: Dynamic ViscosityUnit: cP
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
