μ = (ΔP*(Dpipe^2))/(32*Lp*Vmean)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Dynamic Viscosity - (Measured in Pascal Second) - The Dynamic Viscosity refers to the internal resistance of a fluid to flow when a force is applied.
Pressure Difference - (Measured in Pascal) - The Pressure Difference refers to the variation in pressure between two points within a fluid or gas, a critical factor in driving fluid motion.
Diameter of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - The Diameter of Pipe refers to the diameter of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
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.
Mean Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Mean Velocity refers to the average speed at which fluid flows through a given cross-sectional area of a pipe or channel.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
