STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Surface Tension: 72.75 Newton per Meter --> 72.75 Newton per Meter No Conversion Required
Contact Angle: 10 Degree --> 0.1745329251994 Radian (Check conversion here)
Specific Weight of Water in KN per cubic meter: 9.81 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 9810 Newton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Specific Gravity of Fluid: 14 --> No Conversion Required
Distance between Vertical Plates: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_c = (2*σ*(cos(θ)))/(W*G_f*t) --> (2*72.75*(cos(0.1745329251994)))/(9810*14*5)

Evaluating ... ...
