Froude number: Applications, Definition and main application & Other applications

In continuum mechanics, the Froude number (Fr, after William Froude, /ˈfruːd/) is a dimensionless number defined as the ratio of the flow inertia to the external force field (the latter in many applications simply due to gravity). The Froude number is based on the speed–length ratio which he defined as: F r = u g L {\displaystyle \mathrm {Fr} ={\frac…
