Distance of Element from Center Line given Head Loss Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Radial Distance = 2*Shear Stress*Length of Pipe/(Head Loss due to Friction*Specific Weight of Liquid)
d_radial = 2*𝜏*L_p/(h*γ_f)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Radial Distance - (Measured in Meter) - The Radial Distance refers to the distance from a central point, such as the center of a well or pipe, to a point within the fluid system.
Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - The Shear Stress refers to the force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Pipe refers to total length from one end to another in which the liquid is flowing.
Head Loss due to Friction - (Measured in Meter) - The Head Loss due to Friction refers to the loss of energy (or pressure) that occurs when a fluid flows through a pipe or duct due to the resistance created by the surface of the pipe.
Specific Weight of Liquid - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - The Specific Weight of Liquid refers to the weight per unit volume of that substance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear Stress: 93.1 Pascal --> 93.1 Pascal No Conversion Required
