laplace number

The Laplace number (La) is a dimensionless number used in the characterisation of free surface fluid dynamics. It is related to the ratio of the surface tension to the momentum-transport inside a fluid. It is defined as follows:

La = \frac{\sigma \rho L}{\mu^2}

where:

σ = surface tension
ρ = density
L = characteristic length
μ = absolute viscosity
