Resistance to flow in Membranes Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area = Applied Pressure Driving Force/(Liquid Viscosity*Flux through Membrane)
R_m = ΔP_m/(μ*J_wM)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area - (Measured in 1 per Meter) - Membrane flow resistance of unit area is defined as the measure of the resistance that a membrane presents to the flow of a substance through it, normalized by the area of the membrane.
Applied Pressure Driving Force - (Measured in Pascal) - Applied Pressure Driving Force is defined as the force or pressure that is intentionally exerted or applied to induce or facilitate process.
Liquid Viscosity - (Measured in Pascal Second) - Liquid viscosity is defined as the measure of a fluid's resistance to flow or its internal friction when subjected to an external force.
Flux through Membrane - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second) - Flux through membrane is defined as the rate of movement or transfer of a substance per unit area across a porous barrier known as a membrane.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Applied Pressure Driving Force: 300000 Pascal --> 300000 Pascal No Conversion Required
Liquid Viscosity: 0.0009 Kilogram per Meter per Second --> 0.0009 Pascal Second (Check conversion here)
Flux through Membrane: 0.0069444 Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second --> 0.0069444 Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_m = ΔP_m/(μ*J_wM) --> 300000/(0.0009*0.0069444)

Evaluating ... ...

R_m = 48000307201.9661

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

48000307201.9661 1 per Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

48000307201.9661 ≈ 4.8E+10 1 per Meter <-- Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area
