The image above represents volume flow rate. To calculate the volume flow rate, five essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Width of Tube (W), Separation Distance between Atoms (δ), Change in Pressure (ΔP), Viscosity (η) and Distance between Fluid Flow (L).
The formula for calculating volume flow rate:
Q = 2Wδ³ΔP / 3ηL
Where:
Q = Volume Flow Rate
W = Width of Tube
δ = Separation Distance between Atoms
ΔP = Change in Pressure
η = Viscosity
L = Distance between Fluid Flow
Let’s solve an example;
Find the volume flow rate when the width of tube is 4, the separation distance between atoms is 8, the change in pressure is 2, the viscosity is 10 and the distance between fluid flow is 3.
This implies that;
W = Width of Tube = 4
δ = Separation Distance between Atoms = 8
ΔP = Change in Pressure = 2
η = Viscosity = 10
L = Distance between Fluid Flow = 3
Q = 2Wδ³ΔP / 3ηL
Q = 2(4)(8)³(2) / 3(10)(3)
That is, Q = 2(4)(512)(2) / 90
Q = 8192 / 90
Q = 91.02
Therefore, the volume flow rate is 91.02 m³/s.
