Variables Used

Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow is the total volumetric flow rate divided by the cross-sectional area of the pipe.
Head Loss - (Measured in Meter) - Head Loss is a measure of the reduction in the total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of the fluid as it moves through a fluid system.
Pipe Radius - (Measured in Meter) - The Pipe Radius is the radius of the pipe through which the fluid is flowing.
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction - Darcy's Coefficient of Friction refers to a parameter used to characterize the flow of water or other fluids through porous media, such as soil or rock.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Head Loss: 1.2 Meter --> 1.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Pipe Radius: 200 Millimeter --> 0.2 Meter (Check conversion here)
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction: 0.045 --> No Conversion Required
