SUMMARY

The discussion centers on calculating pressure in a pipe, specifically noting a pressure range of 7-10 psi. Participants are encouraged to share their methods for calculation, including the assumptions and formulas they utilized. The conversation highlights the complexities of aerodynamics and the unpredictability often encountered in such calculations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of fluid dynamics principles
  • Familiarity with pressure measurement units (psi)
  • Knowledge of relevant formulas for pressure calculation in pipes
  • Basic grasp of aerodynamics concepts
NEXT STEPS
  • Research fluid dynamics equations for pressure drop in pipes
  • Explore the Bernoulli equation and its applications
  • Learn about the impact of pipe diameter and flow rate on pressure
  • Investigate common assumptions in aerodynamics calculations
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, students in fluid dynamics, and anyone involved in projects requiring precise pressure calculations in piping systems.

I worked out about 7-10psi in the pipe. What do you guys think?

How did you do your calculation? What assumptions and formula did you use?
Aerodynamics is a hard subject and nothing ever goes the way you'd expect. :wink:
 
I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
