De Olifant, Burdaard Each revolution of the screw lifts of water. The drive to the Archimedes' screw that pumps water into the polder is from a 38-cog gear wheel meshing with the "great spur wheel". This drives a 25 stave gear wheel which drives a "wallower" (30 cogs). The "wallower" drives a gear wheel with 31 cogs. This drives a cast iron gear wheel with 48 teeth. This drives the Archimedes' screw via a cast iron gear wheel with 60 cogs on the axle of the Archimedes' screw. This Archimedes' screw has an axle diameter of and is diameter overall. It is inclined
Archimedes number forced convection dominates. When the density difference is due to heat transfer (e.g. fluid being heated and causing a temperature difference between different parts of the fluid), then we may write where: Doing this gives the Grashof number, i.e. the Archimedes and Grashof numbers are equivalent but suited to describing situations where there is a material difference in density and heat transfer causes the density difference respectively. The Archimedes number is related to both the Richardson number and Reynolds number via Archimedes number In viscous fluid dynamics, the Archimedes number (Ar) (not to be confused with Archimedes' constant, π), named
