Description

flow_rate calculate the flow rate for a given head loss

Usage

1
flow_rate(hf, D, L, RC, v = 1.01e-06, g = 9.81)

Arguments

hf

Total head loss in meters

D

Diameter in meters

L

Length of pipe in meters

RC

Roughness coefficient. Absolute roughness (in meters) for Universal equation.

v

Kinematic viscosity of fluid in square meters per second. By default use the value for water at 20 Celsius degree (v = 1.01e-6 m^2/s). Unnecessary for empirical equations.

g

Gravitational acceleration. By default use the value g = 9.81 m/s^2

Value

Q Flow rate in cubic meters per second
