Prandtl Number Formula

From Viscosity & Diffusivity

Pr = ν / α

Where:

  • • Pr = Prandtl number
  • • ν = kinematic viscosity (m²/s)
  • • α = thermal diffusivity (m²/s)

From Properties

Pr = (μ × c_p) / k

Where:

  • • μ = dynamic viscosity (Pa·s)
  • • c_p = specific heat (J/(kg·K))
  • • k = thermal conductivity (W/(m·K))
