Calculator Inputs and Outputs
Inputs
- Fluid density ρ (kg/m³) — example: 1000
- Fluid depth h (m) — example: 10
- Gravity g (m/s²) — example: 9.80665
- Surface pressure (Pa) — example: 101325
Results
- Gauge pressure (Pa)
- Absolute pressure (Pa)
- Gauge pressure (bar)
Formula used
Hydrostatic gauge pressure = ρgh; absolute pressure adds surface pressure.
How to Use the Static Fluid Pressure Calculator
Enter the requested values, check the units and assumptions, then select Calculate Static Fluid Pressure. The built-in defaults provide a complete working example.
Formula
Hydrostatic gauge pressure = ρgh; absolute pressure adds surface pressure.
Understanding the Results
The primary answer appears first. Supporting outputs show related quantities, conversions, dates, costs, ratios, or intermediate values. Calculations keep additional precision before display rounding.
Accuracy Tips
- Use measured values and consistent units.
- Review assumptions, rates, timing, and efficiency inputs.
- Recalculate after changing any condition.
