Pipe Velocity Calculator

Find fluid velocity from flow rate and pipe area.

Calculated Output

Velocity 2

Formula: v = flow rate ÷ area

Step-by-Step Breakdown

1. Values used:

2. Flow rate = 0.02 m³/s

3. Pipe area = 0.01

5. Velocity = Flow rate / Pipe area = 0.02 / 0.01 = 2

Did this calculator solve your problem today?

The math behind it

v = flow rate ÷ cross-section area.

0.02 m³/s through 0.01 m² → 2 m/s.

Area from diameter?

A = π × (diameter/2)².
