μ is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid (Pa·s = N·s/m 2 = kg/(m·s)); Q is the volumetric flow rate, used here to measure flow instead of mean velocity according to Q = π / 4 D c 2 <v> (m 3 /s). Note that this laminar form of Darcy–Weisbach is equivalent to the Hagen–Poiseuille equation, which is analytically derived from the ...
In fluid dynamics, the Darcy friction factor formulae are equations that allow the calculation of the Darcy friction factor, a dimensionless quantity used in the Darcy–Weisbach equation, for the description of friction losses in pipe flow as well as open-channel flow.
Diagram showing definitions and directions for Darcy's law. A is the cross sectional area (m 2) of the cylinder. Q is the flow rate (m 3 /s) of the fluid flowing through the area A. The flux of fluid through A is q = Q/A. L is the length of the cylinder. Δp = p outlet - p inlet = p b - p a.
Chest wall compliance can be decreased by fixed abnormalities (e.g. kyphoscoliosis, morbid obesity) or more variable problems driven by patient agitation while intubated. [ 1 ] Calculating compliance on minute volume (V E : Δ V is always defined by tidal volume (V T ), but Δ P is different for the measurement of dynamic vs. static compliance.
It adapts the work of Hunter Rouse [2] but uses the more practical choice of coordinates employed by R. J. S. Pigott, [3] whose work was based upon an analysis of some 10,000 experiments from various sources. [4] Measurements of fluid flow in artificially roughened pipes by J. Nikuradse [5] were at the time too recent to include in Pigott's chart.
The initial conditions exist at point 1. Point 2 exists at the nozzle throat, where M = 1. Point 3 labels the transition from isentropic to Fanno flow. Points 4 and 5 give the pre- and post-shock wave conditions, and point E is the exit from the duct. Figure 4 The H-S diagram is depicted for the conditions of Figure 3. Entropy is constant for ...
A medium with a permeability of 1 darcy permits a flow of 1 cm 3 /s of a fluid with viscosity 1 cP (1 mPa·s) under a pressure gradient of 1 atm/cm acting across an area of 1 cm 2. Typical values of permeability range as high as 100,000 darcys for gravel, to less than 0.01 microdarcy for granite. Sand has a permeability of approximately 1 darcy ...
The Darcy-Weisbach equation can be used equivalently with either the fanning friction factor or the Darcy Weisbach friction factor, however if the fanning factor is used the diameter D in the equation must be replaced with the hydraulic radius.74.60.57.253 04:16, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
