Convert a pressure difference to fluid head, or head to pressure.
Convert a pressure difference to fluid head, or head to pressure.
App id: FLUID-08. Reference version 1.0.
How to fill it
Fill 2 values. The tool solves the rest.
On the tool screen, Calc is the working sheet. Presets stores values you reuse. Reference is the formula, assumptions, and provenance below.
Formula
H = ΔP / (ρ g)Inputs
| Name | Unit |
|---|---|
| Pressure difference | kPa |
| Head | m |
| Density | kg/m3 |
| Gravity (optional) | m/s2 |
Outputs
| Name | Unit |
|---|---|
| Head (hero result) | m |
| Pressure difference | kPa |
Diagnose
This tool does not attach diagnose observations.
Assumptions
- Density is the fluid density, not specific gravity unless you convert first.
- Leave gravity blank for 9.80665 m/s².
Provenance
- Hydrostatic relation ΔP = ρ g H.
