Liquid Level Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Liquid Level between Plates = ((Capacitance-No Fluid Capacitance)*Plate Height)/(No Fluid Capacitance*Dielectric Constant)
D_L = ((C-C_a)*R)/(C_a*μ)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Liquid Level between Plates - (Measured in Meter) - Liquid Level between Plates refers to the distance or thickness of a liquid layer present between two parallel plates.
Capacitance - (Measured in Farad) - Capacitance is the ratio of the amount of electric charge stored on a conductor to a difference in electric potential.
No Fluid Capacitance - (Measured in Farad) - No Fluid Capacitance is non-liquid submerged capacitance.
Plate Height - (Measured in Meter) - Plate Height refers to the distance between the top and bottom surfaces of plates used in devices like capacitance level sensors to gauge fluid levels.
Dielectric Constant - Dielectric Constant is a measure of a material's ability to store electrical energy in an electric field, influencing its capacitance and determining its electrical properties.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Capacitance: 10.1 Farad --> 10.1 Farad No Conversion Required
No Fluid Capacitance: 4.6 Farad --> 4.6 Farad No Conversion Required
Plate Height: 1.05 Meter --> 1.05 Meter No Conversion Required
Dielectric Constant: 60 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_L = ((C-C_a)*R)/(C_a*μ) --> ((10.1-4.6)*1.05)/(4.6*60)

Evaluating ... ...

D_L = 0.0209239130434783

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0209239130434783 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0209239130434783 ≈ 0.020924 Meter <-- Liquid Level between Plates

Cross-Sectional Area of Object

Go Cross Section Area Level = Buoyancy Force/(Immersed Depth*Fluid Specific Weight)

Immersed Depth

Go Immersed Depth = Buoyancy Force/(Cross Section Area Level*Fluid Specific Weight)

Buoyancy

Go Buoyancy Force = Immersed Depth*Cross Section Area Level*Fluid Specific Weight

Depth of Fluid

Go Depth = Pressure Change/Fluid Specific Weight

Liquid Level Formula

Liquid Level between Plates = ((Capacitance-No Fluid Capacitance)*Plate Height)/(No Fluid Capacitance*Dielectric Constant)
D_L = ((C-C_a)*R)/(C_a*μ)

What are the three types of buoyancy?

The three types of buoyancy are positive buoyancy, negative buoyancy, and neutral buoyancy. Positive buoyancy is when the immersed object is lighter than the fluid displaced and this is the reason why the object floats.

How to Calculate Liquid Level?

Liquid Level calculator uses Liquid Level between Plates = ((Capacitance-No Fluid Capacitance)*Plate Height)/(No Fluid Capacitance*Dielectric Constant) to calculate the Liquid Level between Plates, The Liquid Level formula is defined as Liquid level sensors, also called liquid level switches, which are designed to change state when immersed in a liquid. They are used to determine if a liquid or oil exists at a particular level in a container. Liquid Level between Plates is denoted by D_L symbol.

How to calculate Liquid Level using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Liquid Level, enter Capacitance (C), No Fluid Capacitance (C_a), Plate Height (R) & Dielectric Constant (μ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Liquid Level calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.020924 = ((10.1-4.6)*1.05)/(4.6*60).
