Surface Tension Calculator

Surface tension is the property of a fluid surface that causes it to behave like an elastic sheet. It’s the force per unit length acting perpendicular to the surface. The surface tension () of a liquid is defined as the force acting per unit length along the interface between the liquid and the gas phase. The formula for surface tension is:

Where:

  • is the surface tension,
  • is the force acting perpendicular to the surface,
  • is the length of the interface over which the force is acting.
