Initial Velocity of Water given Water Hammer Pressure Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Flow Velocity of Fluid = (Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng.*Velocity of Sound in Water)/Bulk Modulus of Water
V_w = (P_w*C)/K_w
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Flow Velocity of Fluid - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity of Fluid gives the velocity of an element of fluid at a position and time.
Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng. - (Measured in Pascal) - Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng. is defined as pressure surge caused by a rapid change in flow velocity in the pipeline.
Velocity of Sound in Water - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Sound in Water is about 1,480 meters per second.
Bulk Modulus of Water - (Measured in Pascal) - Bulk Modulus of Water is defined as the proportion of volumetric stress linked to the volumetric strain of definite material, although the deformation of the material is within the elastic limit.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng.: 1.8 Megapascal --> 1800000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Velocity of Sound in Water: 1480 Meter per Second --> 1480 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Bulk Modulus of Water: 191.69 Megapascal --> 191690000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_w = (P_w*C)/K_w --> (1800000*1480)/191690000

Evaluating ... ...

V_w = 13.8974385726955

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

13.8974385726955 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

13.8974385726955 ≈ 13.89744 Meter per Second <-- Flow Velocity of Fluid
