Piezometric Pressure Head
Piezometric pressure head is defined as the height of a column of water that would have the same pressure as the water at a particular point in a flowing fluid.
Symbol: P
Measurement: PressureUnit: N/m²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Water Density
The Water Density refers to the measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of water. It is typically expressed in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³) or grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
Symbol: ρwater
Measurement: DensityUnit: kg/m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Fluid Height
Fluid Height is the column of the fluid in the column.
Symbol: L
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
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

FAQs on Piezometric Pressure

What is the formula to find Piezometric Pressure?
The formula of Piezometric Pressure is expressed as Piezometric Pressure Head = Water Density*[g]*Fluid Height. Here is an example- 980.665 = 1000*[g]*0.1.
How to calculate Piezometric Pressure?
With Water Density water) & Fluid Height (L) we can find Piezometric Pressure using the formula - Piezometric Pressure Head = Water Density*[g]*Fluid Height. This formula also uses Gravitational acceleration on Earth constant(s).
Can the Piezometric Pressure be negative?
Yes, the Piezometric Pressure, measured in Pressure can be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Piezometric Pressure?
Piezometric Pressure is usually measured using the Newton per Square Meter[N/m²] for Pressure. Pascal[N/m²], Kilopascal[N/m²], Bar[N/m²] are the few other units in which Piezometric Pressure can be measured.
