Radius of Elemental Section of Pipe given Shear Stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Radial Distance = (2*Shear Stress)/(Specific Weight of Liquid*Piezometric Gradient)
dradial = (2*𝜏)/(γf*dh/dx)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Radial Distance - (Measured in Meter) - The Radial Distance refers to the distance from a central point, such as the center of a well or pipe, to a point within the fluid system.
Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - The Shear Stress refers to the force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Specific Weight of Liquid - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - The Specific Weight of Liquid refers to the weight per unit volume of that substance.
Piezometric Gradient - The Piezometric Gradient refers to the measure of the change in hydraulic head (or piezometric head) per unit distance in a given direction within a fluid system.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Shear Stress: 93.1 Pascal --> 93.1 Pascal No Conversion Required
Specific Weight of Liquid: 9.81 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 9810 Newton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion ​here)
