Add the calculated Reynolds number to the viewable results

I know that Reynolds number is calculated in the background of the model.
It'd be really interesting to see what it is throughout the network at any given time to help understand whether/when the pipe is in turbulent vs laminar flow

    Reynolds number is computed as (velocity*diameter)/kinematic viscosity. Calculation of Re seems like a good use for the Real (Formula) option in User Data Extensions (see screencaps for example). (To make a User Data Extension available in all new projects, add it to your seed file.)
