form of the Reynolds number for non-Newtonian pipe flow, built from the flow behaviour index and consistency, so one friction factor curve fits laminar flow.

In chemical engineering, Metzner-Reed Reynolds number refers to form of the Reynolds number for non-Newtonian pipe flow, built from the flow behaviour index and consistency, so one friction factor curve fits laminar flow. This meaning comes from Metzner (1955) in AIChE Journal.[1]
