Reynold's Number is defined as:
Re = (\rho) *(Velocity Scale)*(length Scale)/ (\mu) 1. Determine your velocity scale. It could be the speed of your driving force? 2. Determine your length scale. size of box? Usually other researchers will have already defined a Reynolds number. Its good to take their definition so you can compare results. |

see: Fluid mechanics in a driven cavity
P.N. Shankar and M.D. Deshpande Annual Review in Fluid Mechanics V.32 pp93-136 this should give you too much info. |
