Pressure Head of Liquid Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pressure Head = Pressure/Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer
h = p/S
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure Head - (Measured in Meter) - Pressure Head is the vertical height of the free surface above any point in a liquid at rest.
Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed.
Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer is the ratio of a body’s weight P to its volume V.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pressure: 825 Pascal --> 825 Pascal No Conversion Required
Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer: 0.75 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 750 Newton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h = p/S --> 825/750

Evaluating ... ...

h = 1.1

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.1 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.1 Meter <-- Pressure Head

(Calculation completed in 00.021 seconds)

What is Pressure Head?

In fluid mechanics, pressure head is the height of a liquid column that corresponds to a particular pressure exerted by the liquid column on the base of its container. It may also be called static pressure head or simply static head

How to Calculate Pressure Head of Liquid?

Pressure Head of Liquid calculator uses Pressure Head = Pressure/Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer to calculate the Pressure Head, The Pressure Head of Liquid formula is defined as a function of specific weight and pressure applied, it is convenient to express a fluid pressure in terms of pressure head. The pressure is then expressed in terms of metres (or centimetres) of a liquid column. Pressure Head is denoted by h symbol.

How to calculate Pressure Head of Liquid using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Pressure Head of Liquid, enter Pressure (p) & Specific Weight of Liquid in Piezometer (S) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Pressure Head of Liquid calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.066667 = 825/750.
