I mentioned this because I wanted to make the point that there is no universal definition of swirl number. It is defined based on what makes sense in the application.
In IC engines it makes a lot of sense to normalise against crankshaft velocity as it is the scaling factor on all engine flows. But for a GT this may not be the case, so an equivalent swirl number normalised by shaft speed may be meaningless. |

I confused for CEL equation. The W in the swirl number equation is tangential velocity. So, why you use sqrt((Velocity u^2)+(Velocity w^2)) for the W ? Why isn't velocity u or velocity w used for W? |
