Pressure Difference in Terms of Flow of Lubricant Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pressure difference between slot sides = Length of slot in direction of flow*12*Dynamic Viscosity of Lubricant*Flow of lubricant from slot/((Oil film thickness^3)*Breadth of slot for oil flow)
ΔP = l*12*μ_l*Q_slot/((h^3)*b)
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure difference between slot sides - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure difference between slot sides is the difference in pressure intensities at two different sides of the slot.
Length of slot in direction of flow - (Measured in Meter) - Length of slot in direction of flow is the length of the rectangular slot through which viscous oil flows.
Dynamic Viscosity of Lubricant - (Measured in Pascal Second) - The Dynamic Viscosity of Lubricant is the resistance to movement of one layer of fluid over another.
Flow of lubricant from slot - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flow of lubricant from slot can be defined as the amount of lubricant flowing per unit time between the slots.
Oil film thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Oil film thickness is defined as the thickness of the oil film between the two parts in relative motion.
Breadth of slot for oil flow - (Measured in Meter) - Breadth of slot for oil flow is defined as the length of the rectangular slot in a plane perpendicular to the direction of flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of slot in direction of flow: 48 Millimeter --> 0.048 Meter (Check conversion here)
Dynamic Viscosity of Lubricant: 220 Centipoise --> 0.22 Pascal Second (Check conversion here)
Flow of lubricant from slot: 15 Cubic Millimeter per Second --> 1.5E-08 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Oil film thickness: 0.02 Millimeter --> 2E-05 Meter (Check conversion here)
Breadth of slot for oil flow: 49 Millimeter --> 0.049 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ΔP = l*12*μ_l*Q_slot/((h^3)*b) --> 0.048*12*0.22*1.5E-08/((2E-05^3)*0.049)

Evaluating ... ...

ΔP = 4848979.59183673

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4848979.59183673 Pascal -->4.84897959183673 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

4.84897959183673 ≈ 4.84898 Megapascal <-- Pressure difference between slot sides
