Orifice gravitational constant formula |
||
|
\( G \;=\; \dfrac{ \left( \dfrac{ Q }{ C_d \cdot A_o} \right)^2 }{ 2 \cdot h_c }\) (Orifice Gravitational Constant) \( Q \;=\; A_o \cdot C_d \cdot \sqrt { 2 \cdot G \cdot h_c } \) \( C_d \;=\; \dfrac{ Q }{ A_o \cdot \sqrt{ 2 \cdot G \cdot h_c } }\) \( A_0 \;=\; \dfrac{ Q }{ C_d \cdot \sqrt{ 2 \cdot G \cdot h_c } }\) \( h_c \;=\; \dfrac{ \left( \dfrac{Q }{ A_o \cdot C_d } \right)^2 }{ 2 \cdot G }\) |
