Erosional Velocity Calculator, Formula, Erosional Velocity Calculation

Erosional Velocity Calculator:

Enter the values of Empirical constant C(lb/s/ft2) & Gas Density p(lb/ft3)  to determine the value of Erosional Velocity EV(ft/s).

Enter Empirical Constant: lb/s/ft2
Enter Gas Density: lb/ft3
   
Result – Erosional Velocity: ft/s

Erosional Velocity Formula:

The Erosional Velocity EV(ft/s) in feet per second is equal to the Empirical constant C(lb/s/ft2) in lb per second per feet square is Divided by the SQRT of the Gas Density p(lb/ft3) in lb per feet cube.

The Formula of Erosional Velocity can be writtern as,

EV(ft/s) = C(lb/s/ft2) / SQRT ( p(lb/ft3) )

Here,

EV(ft/s) = Erosional Velocity in feet per second

C(lb/s/ft2) = Empirical constant in lb per second per feet square

p(lb/ft3) = Gas Density in lb per feet cube

Example Problems for Erosional Velocity:

1)Calculate the Erosional Velocity and given for Empirical constant = 125lb/s/ft2 , Gas Density = 25lb/ft3.

Answer

EV = C / √ ( p )

EV = 125 / √ ( 25 )

EV = 25ft/s.

2)Calculate the Gas Density and given for Empirical constant = 125lb/s/ft2 , Erosional Velocity = 25ft/s.

Answer

EV = C / √ ( p )

25 = 125 / √ ( p )

p = 25lb/ft3.
