The two equations results in some simple simultaneous equations to solve to find the
coefficients $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$, $e$, $f$.
# Standard Nondimensional Groups in Fluids
This is not an exhaustive list.
## Reynolds Number
$$\text{Re} = \frac{\rho U L}{\mu}$$
Represents ratio of intertial forces over viscous forces.
Important in all viscous flows.
## Froude Number
$$\text{Fr} = \frac{U^2}{gL}$$
Represents ratio of inerital forces over gravitational forces.
Important in flows with interfaces (e.g. gas-liquid).
## Weber Number
$$\text{We} = \frac{rho U^2 L}{\sigma}$$
where $\sigma$ is the surface tension coeffecient.
Represents ratio of inertial to capillary forces.
Important to flows with strong surface tension effects (e.g. droplets,
bubbles, jets)
## Strouhal Number
$$\text{St} = \frac{fL}{U}$$
where $f$ is frequency.
Important in flows with velocity oscillations.
## Mach Number
$$\text{Ma} = \frac U a$$

# Across Variable vs Through Variable
Across variables:
- Appears across two terminal of an element
- Measured relative to a reference point
- e.g. voltage
Through variables:
- Value is same at both terminals of an element
- e.g. current
# Ohm's Law
For all components that follow Ohm's law:
$$V = IR$$
where $V$ is voltage across a component, $I$ is current through it, and $R$ is resistance of the component.
# Impedance vs Resistance
- Impedance is used when there are energy storage elements to a component.
- Resistance, a special case of impedance, can be used when there is no storage element
# Kirchhoff's Laws
## Current
The sum of current entering a node is 0
$$\sum_n I_n = 0$$
## Voltage
The sum of voltage around a closed loop is 0
$$\sum_n V_n = 0$$
# Energy Storing Elements --- Reactive Elements
When you apply a voltage to a reactive element, the reactive element will start storing energy.
When the voltage is removed, it will push current until all energy is dissipated.
There are two types of Reactive Elements
## Inductors
A coil of wire wound around a magnetic core, such as iron.
They have a property, inductance, with SI unit henry and symbol H.
For an inductor:
$$V = L\frac{\mathrm{d}I}{\mathrm{d}t}$$
where $L$ is the inductance of the coil.
Energy is stored in the magnetic flux around the coil.
This creates the behaviour of trying to minimize change in current.
If you remove the voltage source and open the circuit, the inductor would have a voltage approaching
infinity, causing problems if the energy stored in the inductor is high enough.
## Capacitor
For a capacitor:
$$I = C\frac{\mathrm{d}V}{\mathrm{d}t}$$
Energy is stored in the form of electrostatic attraction in the adjacent plates.
Capacitors try to minimize changes in voltage.
If a capacitor is shorted, the current through the connecting wires will be extremely high, causing
the wires to heat up.
