Hagen Poiseuille equation (1)

Input(s)

\(P_{o}\): Input Pressure (psi)

\(P_{L}\): Output Pressure (psi)

\(\mathrm{R}\): Radius (ft)

w: Mass rate of Flow (lb/s)

\(\rho\): Density \((\mathrm{ppg})\)

L: Length (ft)

Output(s)

\(\mu\): Viscosity (cP)

Formula(s)

\[ \mu=\frac{\left(P_{o}-P_{L}\right) * \pi *\left(R^{4}\right) * \rho}{8 * w * L} \]
