Darcy's Coefficient of Friction given Internal Radius of Pipe Formula Elements

Variables
Constants
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.
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.
Length of Pipe
Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
Symbol: Lp
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
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.
Gravitational acceleration on Earth
Gravitational acceleration on Earth means that the velocity of an object in free fall will increase by 9.8 m/s2 every second.
Symbol: [g]
Value: 9.80665 m/s²
