(a) Reynold's number: It is the ratio of the inertia force to the viscous force.
(b) Froude's number: It is the ratio of the inertia force to the gravity force.
(c) Weber's number: It is the ratio of the inertia force to the surface tension force.
(d) Euler's number: It is the ratio of the inertia force to the pressure force.
(e) Mach's number or Cauchy's number: It is the ratio of the inertia force to the elastic force.

Mach number is actually ratio of fluid velocity to acoustic velocity and ratio of inertial force to viscous is reynold number.
