Drag Force on the Rigid Cylinder Calculator
Posted by Dinesh onOnline fluid dynamics calculator to calculate drag force on a rigid cylinder when velocity is parallel to its axis.
A drag force is the resistance force caused by the motion of a body through a fluid, such as water or air. A drag force acts opposite to the direction of the oncoming flow velocity. This is the relative velocity between the body and the fluid.
Drag Force on the Rigid Cylinder Calculation
Formula:
where,
μ = Dynamic viscosity of the fluid
l = Long length of the cylinder
u = Velosity of the moving cylinder
a = Radius of the base of the cylinder
π = pi (3.14159265358979)
F = Drag force on the rigid cylinder
μ = Dynamic viscosity of the fluid
l = Long length of the cylinder
u = Velosity of the moving cylinder
a = Radius of the base of the cylinder
π = pi (3.14159265358979)
