Question
For forced convection, the important variables, their symbols, and dimensional representations are
listed below. From the Buckingham method of grouping the variables, the rank of the dimensional matrix is
4. What is the number of independent dimensionless groups in this case? By utilizing the dimensional-
analysis approach, find a dimensionless group. (Show just one dimensionless group you can find)
