Extracting equations from dimensionless groups

Here I discuss why we need experiments for complement dimensional analysis. I use the example of flow down pipes and the Moody diagram to do this. Finally, I fit my own curve to a portion of the…

Here I go introduce what a weir is. I then through the dimensional analysis of the flow over one. Fianlly I point out that experimentation is needed to actually turn the dmensional analysis into…
