Can I know about Reynolds number?

The Reynolds number is an important dimensionless quantity in fluid mechanics, which is used to help predict flow patterns in different fluid flow situations. It is widely used in many applications ranging from liquid flow in a pipe to the passage of air over an aircraft wing. The Reynolds number is valuable as a guide to the laminar-turbulent transition in a particular flow situation and for the scaling of similar, but different-sized flow situations, such as between an aircraft model in a wind tunnel and the full size version.
