viscosity

Does anybody know the unit of C_MU_EFF is m^2/s or kg/m.s?

Re: viscosity

I think it is m^2/s being used in connexion with turbulent flows.

Re: viscosity

I got the answer from the insider of FLUENT. The unit is kg/m.s.

Re: viscosity

m^2/s is the unit for kinematic viscosity, nu (nu = mu/rho), and kg-m/s is the unit for dynamic viscosity (mu).
