5. Use dimensional analysis, and the FLT system to derive the Weber Number, W
W = F_I / F_T = (Ļv² L²) / (ĻL) = (Ļv² L) / Ļ
Physical quantity/ property | FLT system: primary dimensions for BG units
Velocity, v | LTā»Ā¹
Length, L | L
Density, Ļ | FLā»ā“ T²
Surface tension, Ļ | FLā»Ā¹
Hint: the three primary variables in a pi term relate to mass (Ļ), kinematics (v), and geometry (L) of the flow situation.
