Velocity of Fluid Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Fluid Velocity in Oil Tank = Pressure Gradient*0.5*(Horizontal Distance*Horizontal Distance-Hydraulic Clearance*Horizontal Distance)/Dynamic Viscosity
u_Oiltank = dp|dr*0.5*(R*R-C_H*R)/μ
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Fluid Velocity in Oil Tank - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Fluid Velocity in Oil Tank is the volume of fluid flowing in the given vessel per unit cross sectional area.
Pressure Gradient - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Pressure Gradient is the change in pressure with respect to radial distance of element.
Horizontal Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Horizontal Distance denotes the instantaneous horizontal distance cover by an object in a projectile motion.
Hydraulic Clearance - (Measured in Meter) - Hydraulic Clearance is the gap or space between two surfaces adjacent to each other.
Dynamic Viscosity - (Measured in Pascal Second) - The Dynamic Viscosity refers to the internal resistance of a fluid to flow when a force is applied.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pressure Gradient: 60 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 60 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Horizontal Distance: 0.7 Meter --> 0.7 Meter No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Clearance: 50 Millimeter --> 0.05 Meter (Check conversion here)
Dynamic Viscosity: 10.2 Poise --> 1.02 Pascal Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

u_Oiltank = dp|dr*0.5*(R*R-C_H*R)/μ --> 60*0.5*(0.7*0.7-0.05*0.7)/1.02

Evaluating ... ...

u_Oiltank = 13.3823529411765

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

13.3823529411765 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

13.3823529411765 ≈ 13.38235 Meter per Second <-- Fluid Velocity in Oil Tank
