what is the value of the viscosity of water when used in this eq'n?

K = (30n/Gs-1)^0.5 (n is nu)

Viscosity depends on temperature. If you know the temperature, you can google viscosity of water.

Is that equation supposed to be dimensionally consistent, or is it empirically based? I don't recall seeing it. I ask because the dimensions don't agree.

G_s -1 is dimensionless

nu is L^2/T

K is L/T
