What is the physical significance of the reynolds number? . how is defined for external flow over a plate of length l.

Explanation:

Reynolds number:

  Reynolds number describe the type of flow.If Reynolds number is too high then flow is called turbulent flow and Reynolds is  low then flow is called laminar flow .

Reynolds number is a dimensionless number.Reynolds number given is the ratio of inertia force to the viscous force.

For plate can be given as

Where  ρ is the density of fluid , v is the average velocity of fluid and μ is the dynamic viscosity of fluid.

Flow on plate is a external flow .The values of Reynolds number for different flow given as
