This formula uses 1 Constants, 5 Variables
Constants Used
[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665
Variables Used
Pipe Radius - (Measured in Meter) - The Pipe Radius is the radius of the pipe through which the fluid is flowing.
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction - Darcy's Coefficient of Friction refers to a parameter used to characterize the flow of water or other fluids through porous media, such as soil or rock.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow is the total volumetric flow rate divided by the cross-sectional area of the pipe.
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.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction: 0.045 --> No Conversion Required
Length of Pipe: 2.5 Meter --> 2.5 Meter No Conversion Required
Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow: 4.57 Meter per Second --> 4.57 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Head Loss: 1.2 Meter --> 1.2 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
R = (f*Lp*(vavg)^2)/([g]*hf) --> (0.045*2.5*(4.57)^2)/([g]*1.2)
Evaluating ... ...
R = 0.199656291903963
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.199656291903963 Meter -->199.656291903963 Millimeter (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
199.656291903963 199.6563 Millimeter <-- Pipe Radius
