Poiseuille's Formula
Calculate the volume flow discharged through a smooth-walled circular pipe using Poiseuille's formula.
Poiseuille's Formula
Calculate the volume flow discharged through a smooth-walled circular pipe.
Formula
V = π × p × r⁴ / (8 × η × l)
Where:
- V = discharge volume flow (m³/s)
- p = pressure difference between the ends of the pipe (N/m², Pa)
- r = internal radius of pipe (m)
- l = length of pipe (m)
- η = dynamic viscosity of fluid (Pa·s)
