Formula Used
Mean Velocity = Power/(Length of Pipe*Pressure Gradient*Cross Sectional Area of Pipe)
Vmean = P/(Lp*dp|dr*A)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Mean Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Mean Velocity refers to the average speed at which fluid flows through a given cross-sectional area of a pipe or channel.
Power - (Measured in Watt) - The Power refers to the rate at which energy is transferred or converted by the hydraulic system.
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.
Pressure Gradient - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - The Pressure Gradient refers to the rate of change of pressure in a particular direction indicating how quickly the pressure increases or decreases around a specific location.
Cross Sectional Area of Pipe - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Cross sectional Area of Pipe refers to the area of the pipe through which the given liquid is flowing.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Power: 34.34 Watt --> 34.34 Watt No Conversion Required
Length of Pipe: 0.1 Meter --> 0.1 Meter No Conversion Required
Pressure Gradient: 17 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 17 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
