Barlow's Formula for Pipe Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pressure = (2*Applied Stress*Wall Thickness)/(Outside Diameter)
P = (2*σ*t)/(D_o)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - The Pressure is the force exerted by a fluid per unit area within a pipe, influencing fluid flow and system performance in mechanical applications.
Applied Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - The Applied Stress is the internal force per unit area within a material, indicating how much load a pipe can withstand under various conditions.
Wall Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - The Wall Thickness is the measurement of the thickness of a pipe's wall, which affects its strength, durability, and ability to withstand internal pressure.
Outside Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - The Outside Diameter is the total width of a pipe measured across its outer edges, crucial for fitting and compatibility in fluid mechanics applications.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Applied Stress: 93.3 Pascal --> 93.3 Pascal No Conversion Required
Wall Thickness: 7.83 Meter --> 7.83 Meter No Conversion Required
Outside Diameter: 0.06 Meter --> 0.06 Meter No Conversion Required
