L_P = F_Total/(0.75*pi*μ*v_piston*((D/C_R)^3))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 6 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Piston Length - (Measured in Meter) - Piston Length is how far the piston travels in the cylinder, which is determined by the cranks on the crankshaft. length.
Total Force in Piston - (Measured in Newton) - The Total Force in Piston is the sum of pressure forces acting on its surface due to the fluid flow.
Dynamic Viscosity - (Measured in Kilopoise) - The Dynamic Viscosity refers to the internal resistance of a fluid to flow when a force is applied.
Velocity of Piston - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of piston in reciprocating pump is defined as the product of sin of angular velocity and time, radius of crank and angular velocity.
Diameter of Piston - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Piston is the actual diameter of the piston while the bore is the size of the cylinder and will always be larger than the piston.
Radial Clearance - (Measured in Meter) - Radial Clearance or gap is the distance between two surfaces adjacent to each other.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Force in Piston: 2.5 Newton --> 2.5 Newton No Conversion Required
Dynamic Viscosity: 10.2 Poise --> 0.0102 Kilopoise (Check conversion here)
Velocity of Piston: 0.045 Meter per Second --> 0.045 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Diameter of Piston: 3.5 Meter --> 3.5 Meter No Conversion Required
Radial Clearance: 0.45 Meter --> 0.45 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_P = F_Total/(0.75*pi*μ*v_piston*((D/C_R)^3)) --> 2.5/(0.75*pi*0.0102*0.045*((3.5/0.45)^3))

Evaluating ... ...
