Average Velocity of Flow given Internal Radius of Pipe Formula Elements

Variables
Constants
Functions
Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow
Average Velocity in Pipe Fluid Flow is the total volumetric flow rate divided by the cross-sectional area of the pipe.
Symbol: vavg
Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Head Loss
Head Loss is a measure of the reduction in the total head (sum of elevation head, velocity head and pressure head) of the fluid as it moves through a fluid system.
Symbol: hf
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Pipe Radius
The Pipe Radius is the radius of the pipe through which the fluid is flowing.
Symbol: R
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction
Darcy's Coefficient of Friction refers to a parameter used to characterize the flow of water or other fluids through porous media, such as soil or rock.
Symbol: f
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Length of Pipe
Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
Symbol: Lp
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
