Dimensionless quantity characterising the development of Natural Thermal Convection:
\mbox{Gr} = \frac{g \, \beta \, \Delta T \, L^3}{\nu^2} |
where
| Temperature gradient across Natural Thermal Convection | Kinematic viscosity of the fluid | ||
| Thermal expansion coefficient of the fluid | Standard gravity constant | ||
| Characteristic length of Natural Thermal Convection |
