How to Calculate Friction Velocity?
Friction Velocity calculator uses Friction Velocity = Mean Velocity*sqrt(Friction Factor/8) to calculate the Friction Velocity, Friction velocity, also called Shear velocity, is a form by which a shear stress may be re-written in units of velocity. Friction Velocity is denoted by Vf symbol.
How to calculate Friction Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Friction Velocity, enter Mean Velocity (V) & Friction Factor (f) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Friction Velocity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 9.899343 = 17.2*sqrt(2.65/8).
