ocmw.core.similitude module¶

A set of basic non-dimensional parameters used for flow classification.

`courantNumber`	Calculates the Courant Number at a model mesh node.
`froudeNumber`	Calculates the Froude Number at a model mesh node.
`ekmanNumber`	Calculates the Ekman Number at a model mesh node.
`rossbyNumber`	Calculates the Rosby Number at a model mesh node.
