In aircraft design and engineering, “P_static_outlet” represents the static pressure at the outlet of a component or system, such as a compressor or a nozzle. Static pressure is one of the fundamental pressure components in fluid dynamics and thermodynamics. It is the pressure exerted by a fluid at a specific point in a flow field, and it does not account for the kinetic energy of the fluid due to its motion.
The formula for calculating P_static_outlet can be defined as:
- P_static_outlet is the static pressure at the outlet, typically measured in pascals (Pa) or other pressure units.
- P_total_outlet is the total pressure at the outlet, typically measured in pascals (Pa) or other pressure units.
- ρ (rho) is the density of the fluid at the outlet, typically measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³) or other density units.
- V_outlet is the velocity of the fluid at the outlet, typically measured in meters per second (m/s) or other velocity units.
