Roughness Reynolds Number
Description
calculates the Roughness Reynolds Number.
Usage
Reynolds.Number(Tair, pressure, ustar, z0m, constants = bigleaf.constants())
Arguments
Tair |
Air temperature (deg C) |
pressure |
Atmospheric pressure (kPa) |
ustar |
Friction velocity (m s-1) |
z0m |
Roughness length (m) |
constants |
Kelvin - conversion degree Celsius to Kelvin |
Details
The Roughness Reynolds Number is calculated as in Massman 1999a:
Re = z0m * ustar / v
where v
is the kinematic viscosity (m2 s-1).
Value
Re - |
Roughness Reynolds Number (-) |
