There are many established nondimensional parameters besides those listed in Table 7–5. Do a literature search or an Internet search and find at least three established, named nondimensional parameters that are not listed in Table 7–5. For each one, provide its definition and its ratio of significance, following the format of Table 7–5. If your equation contains any variables not identified in Table 7–5, be sure to identify those variables.
