Introduction
Welcome! This page helps you calculate the static pressure in a fluid at any given depth. Knowing the static pressure can help you better understand the properties of the fluid and the environment it's in. Let's get started!
Calculation
⬇️ Inputs
Density of Fluid (kgm^-3)
:997
Acceleration Due to Gravity (ms^-2)
:9.81
Explanation
The pressure in a fluid varies with height, the greater the depth from the free surface, the greater the pressure acting on the particle.
The pressure can be calculated using the following expression:
