Darcy Weisbach Equation In Fluid Mechanics
This equation is valid for fully developed steady incompressible single phase flow.
Darcy weisbach equation in fluid mechanics. The equation is named after henry darcy and julius weisbach. The darcy weisbach equation contains a dimensionless friction factor known as the darcy friction factor. The darcy weisbach equation relates the loss of pressure or head loss due to friction along the given length of pipe to the average velocity of the fluid flow for an incompressible fluid. F is the coefficient of friction or friction factor.
In fluid dynamics the darcy weisbach equation is an empirical equation which relates the head loss or pressure loss due to friction along a given length of pipe to the average velocity of the fluid flow for an incompressible fluid. V is the velocity of incompressible fluid. Where hf is the head loss or pressure loss.
