Mean Velocity of Flow given Pressure Difference Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Mean Velocity = (Pressure Difference*Width)/(12*Dynamic Viscosity*Length of Pipe)
V_mean = (ΔP*w)/(12*μ*L_p)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Mean Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Mean velocity is defined as the average velocity of a fluid at a point and over an arbitrary time T.
Pressure Difference - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure Difference is the difference in pressure intensities at two different points in a liquid.
Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the measurement or extent of something from side to side.
Dynamic Viscosity - (Measured in Pascal Second) - The Dynamic Viscosity refers to the internal resistance of a fluid to flow when a force is applied.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Pipe refers to total length from one end to another in which the liquid is flowing.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pressure Difference: 13.3 Newton per Square Meter --> 13.3 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Width: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Dynamic Viscosity: 10.2 Poise --> 1.02 Pascal Second (Check conversion here)
Length of Pipe: 0.1 Meter --> 0.1 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_mean = (ΔP*w)/(12*μ*L_p) --> (13.3*3)/(12*1.02*0.1)

Evaluating ... ...

V_mean = 32.5980392156863

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

32.5980392156863 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

32.5980392156863 ≈ 32.59804 Meter per Second <-- Mean Velocity
