Head Loss given Critical Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Head Loss = 0.1*((Critical Velocity)^2/(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))
h_f = 0.1*((V_c)^2/(2*g))
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Head Loss - (Measured in Meter) - Head Loss is a measure of the reduction in the total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of the fluid as it moves through a fluid system.
Critical Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Critical velocity is the greatest velocity with which a fluid can flow through a given conduit without becoming turbulent.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity is a fundamental physical constant that represents the acceleration of an object due to the force of gravity exerted by the Earth.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Critical Velocity: 5.06 Meter per Second --> 5.06 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_f = 0.1*((V_c)^2/(2*g)) --> 0.1*((5.06)^2/(2*9.8))

Evaluating ... ...

h_f = 0.130630612244898

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.130630612244898 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.130630612244898 ≈ 0.130631 Meter <-- Head Loss

What is Head Loss?

Head loss is a measure of the reduction in the total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of the fluid as it moves through a fluid system. Head loss is unavoidable in real fluids.

How to Calculate Head Loss given Critical Velocity?

Head Loss given Critical Velocity calculator uses Head Loss = 0.1*((Critical Velocity)^2/(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)) to calculate the Head Loss, The Head Loss given Critical Velocity formula is defined as the measure of reduction in total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of fluid as it moves through fluid system. Head Loss is denoted by h_f symbol.

How to calculate Head Loss given Critical Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Head Loss given Critical Velocity, enter Critical Velocity (V_c) & Acceleration due to Gravity (g) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Head Loss given Critical Velocity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.130631 = 0.1*((5.06)^2/(2*9.8)).

FAQ

What is Head Loss given Critical Velocity?

The Head Loss given Critical Velocity formula is defined as the measure of reduction in total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of fluid as it moves through fluid system and is represented as h_f = 0.1*((V_c)^2/(2*g)) or Head Loss = 0.1*((Critical Velocity)^2/(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)). The Critical velocity is the greatest velocity with which a fluid can flow through a given conduit without becoming turbulent & Acceleration due to Gravity is a fundamental physical constant that represents the acceleration of an object due to the force of gravity exerted by the Earth.

How to calculate Head Loss given Critical Velocity?
