Hi all,

I just want to learn about inlet/outlet hydraulic diamaters

For example I have a value in inlet in tubes-enter to be obtained by myself numerically.( velocity magnitude depending on volumetric flow rate and tube inlet crossectional areas.)

But the model that is used in FLUENT has lots of semi circular tubes then, velocity magnitude depending on volumetric flow rate changes with hydraulic diameter or total circular diamater?

I have made 4x Area / Perimeter to find hyrdaulic diamater in a tube. is it correct ?


Kind Regards,
