How to Evaluate Inlet Velocity given Average Velocity?

Inlet Velocity given Average Velocity evaluator uses Inlet Velocity = (2*Average Velocity)-Outlet Velocity to evaluate the Inlet Velocity, The Inlet Velocity given Average Velocity formula is defined as the function of average velocity and outlet velocity of fluid. Fluid particles are accelerated through the nozzle at nearly five times the acceleration of gravity (almost five g’s)! This simple example clearly illustrates that the acceleration of a fluid particle can be nonzero, even in steady flow. Note that the acceleration is actually a point function, whereas we have estimated a simple average acceleration through the entire nozzle. Inlet Velocity is denoted by Uinlet symbol.
