p The Stokes number , named after Irish people Irish mathematician George Gabriel Stokes , is a dimensionless number corresponding to the behavior of particles Suspension chemistry suspended in a fluid flow. Stokes number is defined as the ratio of the stopping distance of a particle to a characteristic dimension of the obstacle, or p p center math Stk frac tau ,U o d c math center p where math tau math is the relaxation time of the particle, math U o math is the fluid velocity of the flow well away from the obstacle and math d c math is the characteristic dimension of the obstacle. In experimental fluid dynamics, the Stokes number math S k math is a measure of flow tracer fidelity in Particle image velocimetry particle image velocimetry PIV experiments where very small particles are entrained in turbulent flows and optically observed to determine the speed and direction of fluid movement also known as the Vector field velocity field of the fluid . For acceptable tracing accuracy, the particle response time should be faster than the smallest time scale of the flow. Smaller Stokes numbers represent better tracing accuracy for math S k gg 1 math , particles will detach from a flow especially where the flow decelerates abruptly. For math S k ll1 math , particles follow fluid streamlines closely. If math S k ll 0.1 math , tracing accuracy errors are below 1 ref cite book title Springer Handbook of Experimental Fluid Mechanics publisher Springer isbn 978 3 540 25141 5 editor Cameron Tropea, Alexander Yarin, John Foss ref .
