Finding a dimensionless time in a very basic problem
Homework Statement In the chemical reaction problem, assume that the reaction is C + C --> Product, and the chemical reaction rate is r=kc^{2}, where k is the reaction constant. What is the dimension of k? Define dimensionless variables and reformulate the problem in dimensionless form...- tomgill

Differential Equations - Help with scaling / dimensionalizing
Hi all, I have a homework assignment related to the conservation of energy in a fluid. This is given in terms of the density ρ, specific heat c_{p}, thermal conductivity k, bulk viscosity μ, dissipation function \widetilde{\phi}_{v}, velocity function \widetilde{u}, spatial derivative of the...- tomgill
