The Eckert number is a dimensionless number used in flow calculations. It is named after professor Ernst R. G. Eckert.

It gives the relationship between a flow's kinetic energy and enthalpy, and is used to characterize dissipation.

Above equation can also be defined as Eckert Number = Kinetic Energy / Enthalpy.
