Flow Rate for Circular Pipes

The volumetric flow rate is the volume of fluid that passes per unit time.

The flow rate for a circular pipe is the product of one-quarter \[Pi], the diamter squared and the flow velocity of fluid.

Formula

QuantityVariable["Q", "VolumeFlow"] == (Pi*QuantityVariable["D", "Diameter"]^2*QuantityVariable["v", "Speed"])/4

symbol description physical quantity
Q flow rate "VolumeFlow"
D diameter "Diameter"
v flow velocity of fluid "Speed"
