Velocity of Flow Fields Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Velocity of Flow Fields?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

v m = \sqrt{\frac{H f}{\frac{1 - K e}{(2 \cdot [g])} + \frac{({(n)}^{2}) \cdot l}{2.21 \cdot {r h}^{1.33333}}}}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

v m = \sqrt{\frac{0.8027m}{\frac{1 - 0.85}{(2 \cdot [g])} + \frac{({(0.012)}^{2}) \cdot 3m}{2.21 \cdot {0.609m}^{1.33333}}}}

Next Step Substitute values of Constants

∴

v m = \sqrt{\frac{0.8027m}{\frac{1 - 0.85}{(2 \cdot 9.8066m/s²)} + \frac{({(0.012)}^{2}) \cdot 3m}{2.21 \cdot {0.609m}^{1.33333}}}}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

v m = \sqrt{\frac{0.8027}{\frac{1 - 0.85}{(2 \cdot 9.8066)} + \frac{({(0.012)}^{2}) \cdot 3}{2.21 \cdot {0.609}^{1.33333}}}}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

v m = 10.0002818573788m/s

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

v m = 10.0003m/s
