## What is Fluid Mechanics?

Fluid dynamics is “the branch of applied science that is concerned with the movement of liquids and gases”. It involves a wide range of applications such as calculating force & moments, determining the mass flow rate of petroleum through pipelines, predicting weather patterns, understanding nebulae in interstellar space, and modelling fission weapon detonation.

## What are the Applications of Fluid Dynamics?

Fluid Dynamics can be applied in the following ways: Fluid dynamics is used to calculate the forces acting upon the aeroplane. It is used to find the flow rates of material such as petroleum from pipelines. It can also be used in traffic engineering (traffic treated as continuous liquid flow).

## How to Calculate Relative Density of Fluid?

Relative Density of Fluid calculator uses Relative Density = Density of Substance/Density of Water to calculate the Relative Density, The Relative Density of Fluid formula is defined as the ratio of density of substance to the density of water. It is a dimensionless quantity because it is the ratio of two similar quantity which have the same units. Buoyancy (the ability of an object to float in water or air) is intimately related to specific gravity. If a substance has specific gravity less than that of a fluid: it will float on that fluid, If a substance has specific gravity greater than that of a fluid: it will sink in that fluid. Relative Density is denoted by RD symbol.

How to calculate Relative Density of Fluid using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Relative Density of Fluid, enter Density of Substance (ρ) & Density of Water w) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Relative Density of Fluid calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.130391 = 130/997.

### FAQ

What is Relative Density of Fluid?
The Relative Density of Fluid formula is defined as the ratio of density of substance to the density of water. It is a dimensionless quantity because it is the ratio of two similar quantity which have the same units. Buoyancy (the ability of an object to float in water or air) is intimately related to specific gravity. If a substance has specific gravity less than that of a fluid: it will float on that fluid, If a substance has specific gravity greater than that of a fluid: it will sink in that fluid and is represented as RD = ρ/ρw or Relative Density = Density of Substance/Density of Water. Density of Substance shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area & Density of Water is the weight of the water per its unit volume, which depends on the temperature.
