What is Density of Fluid ?

In Darcy-Weisbach equation, the density of the fluid plays a critical role in calculating the pressure loss or head loss due to friction in a pipe or a conduit. In some cases, particularly when converting head loss into pressure loss, fluid density becomes an important parameter. The density of the fluid ρ affects how much pressure loss will occur for a given head loss. Fluids with higher densities (like water or oil) will experience greater pressure loss for the same head loss compared to fluids with lower densities (like air or gases).
