Do you mean that I can use the formula for a circular pipe and then instead of normal radius use hydrualic radius.
Hydrualic Radius = (Area of semi circular cross section)/Perimeter
Please see if this is correct
Thanks
Hi:
I hope someone can advice me on this problem.
I am trying to calculate flow rate through a semi circular tube i.e one side is flat. There is a constant pressure applied. The fluid is laminar.I have calculated the flow rate in a circular tube as
Q = (Pi(P1 - P2) R^4)/8uL
where,
Q =...
