Question:
dimensionless quantity list
Answer:

Dimensionless quantities are quantities that do not have units associated with them. They often arise in various fields of science, engineering, and mathematics. Here's a list of some common dimensionless quantities:

  1. Pure Numbers:

    • Any counting number (1, 2, 3, ...), including integers and fractions.
    • Mathematical constants like π (pi), e (Euler's number), and φ (phi).
  2. Ratios and Fractions:

    • Ratios of similar quantities such as aspect ratios, concentration ratios, and fractions of any kind.
  3. Trigonometric Functions:

    • Sine, cosine, tangent, secant, cosecant, and cotangent functions, and their inverses.
  4. Logarithmic Functions:

    • Logarithms of any base. For instance, the common logarithm (base 10), natural logarithm (base e), and logarithms to any other base.
  5. Physical Constants and Parameters:

    • Reynolds number (in fluid dynamics).
    • Mach number (in fluid dynamics).
    • Prandtl number (in fluid mechanics and heat transfer).
    • Froude number (in fluid mechanics).
    • Péclet number (in heat and mass transfer).
    • Schmidt number (in fluid mechanics and mass transfer).
    • Grashof number (in fluid mechanics and heat transfer).
    • Nusselt number (in heat transfer).
    • Biot number (in heat transfer).
    • Strouhal number (in fluid dynamics and aerodynamics).
    • Euler number (in fluid dynamics).
    • Weber number (in fluid dynamics).
    • Bond number (in fluid dynamics and heat transfer).
  6. Unitless Quantities in Mathematics:

    • Mathematical constants, like those in trigonometry and calculus.
    • Unitless quantities arising from algebraic manipulations.
    • Fractal dimensions (e.g., Hausdorff dimension).
