ReynoldsNumberFunctorMaterial

Computes a Reynolds number.

This material is used to compute the Reynolds number defined as:

Re=Duρμ\mathrm{Re} = \frac{D|u| \rho}{\mu}

where DD is a characteristic length, u|u| is the velocity magnitude, while ρ\rho and μ\mu are the density and dynamic viscosity of the fluid.
