Mass rate of flow
Input(s)
g: Acceleration due to Gravity \(\left(\mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)\)
\(\rho\): Density \((\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cc})\)
\(\delta\): Film Thickness \((\mathrm{cm})\)
\(\mathrm{v}\): Kinematic \(\left(\mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{s}\right)\)
W: Width \((\mathrm{cm})\)
Output(s)
w: Mass Rate of Flow \((\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{s})\)
Formula(s)
\[
\mathrm{w}=\frac{\rho * \mathrm{~g} *\left(\delta^{3}\right) * \mathrm{~W}}{3 * \mathrm{v}}
\]
