This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Flow Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Flow Velocity refers to the speed at which a fluid (such as water) moves through a specific cross-section.
Conversion Factor - Conversion Factor is a numerical coefficient used to convert one set of units to another.
Hydraulic Radius - (Measured in Meter) - The Hydraulic Radius refers to the ratio of the cross-sectional area of a channel or pipe in which a fluid is flowing to the wet perimeter of the conduit.
Energy Loss - (Measured in Joule) - The Energy Loss refers to the dissipation or reduction of energy within a system or process.
Roughness Coefficient of Conduit Surface - The Roughness Coefficient of Conduit Surface refers to the roughness or irregularity of the inner surface of a conduit through which fluid flows.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
