How to Calculate Wetted Surface Area of Vessel given Skin Friction?
Wetted Surface Area of Vessel given Skin Friction calculator uses Wetted Surface Area = Skin Friction of a Vessel/(0.5*Density of Water*Skin friction coefficient*Average Current Speed^2*cos(Angle of the Current)) to calculate the Wetted Surface Area, Wetted surface area of vessel given skin friction is defined as a parameter influencing Skin friction drag due to flow of water over wetted surface area of vessel. Wetted Surface Area is denoted by S symbol.
How to calculate Wetted Surface Area of Vessel given Skin Friction using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Wetted Surface Area of Vessel given Skin Friction, enter Skin Friction of a Vessel (Fc,fric), Density of Water (ρ), Skin friction coefficient (cf), Average Current Speed (Vc) & Angle of the Current (θc) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Wetted Surface Area of Vessel given Skin Friction calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.000457 = 42/(0.5*1000*0.72*0.26^2*cos(20)).
