Mean Diameter of Impeller Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Mean Diameter of Impeller = sqrt((Impeller Tip Diameter^2+Impeller Hub Diameter^2)/2)
D_m = sqrt((D_t^2+D_h^2)/2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Mean Diameter of Impeller - (Measured in Meter) - Mean Diameter of Impeller is the diameter that divides the total annular area into two equal parts.
Impeller Tip Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - Impeller Tip Diameter is the distance of the tip from the center of the shaft.
Impeller Hub Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - Impeller Hub Diameter is the distance of the hub (where the blade roots are mounted) from the center of the shaft.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Impeller Tip Diameter: 0.57 Meter --> 0.57 Meter No Conversion Required
Impeller Hub Diameter: 0.5 Meter --> 0.5 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_m = sqrt((D_t^2+D_h^2)/2) --> sqrt((0.57^2+0.5^2)/2)

Evaluating ... ...

D_m = 0.536143637470408

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.536143637470408 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.536143637470408 ≈ 0.536144 Meter <-- Mean Diameter of Impeller
