Diameter of Particle given Reynold Number Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Diameter of Particle = (Reynolds Number of Particle*Kinematic Viscosity)/Settling Velocity
D_p = (R_p*ν)/v_s
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Diameter of Particle - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Particle is the measurement of the size of individual particles in a soil or sediment sample.
Reynolds Number of Particle - Reynolds Number of Particle is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces of particles within a fluid.
Kinematic Viscosity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Kinematic Viscosity is an atmospheric variable defined as the ratio between the dynamic viscosity μ and the density ρ of the fluid.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Reynolds Number of Particle: 20 --> No Conversion Required
Kinematic Viscosity: 10.2 Stokes --> 0.00102 Square Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_p = (R_p*ν)/v_s --> (20*0.00102)/1.5

Evaluating ... ...

D_p = 0.0136

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0136 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0136 Meter <-- Diameter of Particle
