Hydraulic Gradient given Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Hydraulic Gradient = Mean Velocity/Coefficient of permeability
H = V_mean/k
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Hydraulic Gradient - Hydraulic gradient is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a vertical datum.
Mean Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Mean velocity is defined as the average velocity of a fluid at a point and over an arbitrary time T.
Coefficient of permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Coefficient of Permeability of soil describes how easily a liquid will move through the soil.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mean Velocity: 10 Meter per Second --> 10 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of permeability: 10 Centimeter per Second --> 0.1 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H = V_mean/k --> 10/0.1

Evaluating ... ...

H = 100

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

100 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

100 <-- Hydraulic Gradient

Go Hydraulic Gradient = Mean Velocity/Coefficient of permeability

Mean Velocity using Darcy's Law

Go Mean Velocity = Coefficient of permeability*Hydraulic Gradient

Hydraulic Gradient given Velocity Formula

Hydraulic Gradient = Mean Velocity/Coefficient of permeability
H = V_mean/k

What is Hydraulic Gradient?

Hydraulic head or piezometric head is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a vertical datum. It is usually measured as a liquid surface elevation, expressed in units of length, at the entrance of a piezometer.

How to Calculate Hydraulic Gradient given Velocity?

Hydraulic Gradient given Velocity calculator uses Hydraulic Gradient = Mean Velocity/Coefficient of permeability to calculate the Hydraulic Gradient, Hydraulic Gradient given Velocity is defined as the rate at which total head changes with respect to length of pipe. Hydraulic Gradient is denoted by H symbol.
