Young Laplace Equation Calculator
Result
Young Laplace Equation Calculator Calculate the pressure difference across a curved fluid interface (droplet, bubble) using the Young-Laplace equation. — free online calculator.
Formula
- Young Laplace Equation Calculator calculates its result from R Droplet, Gamma γ. It uses the formula ΔP = 2γ/R (droplet); ΔP = 4γ/R (soap bubble — 2 surfaces). Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
- The main inputs are Surface Tension, Droplet/Bubble Radius, Interface Type. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Use the units, labels and assumptions shown beside each input so the formula is applied consistently.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Young Laplace Equation
- Surface Tension: 72.8 γ
- Droplet/Bubble Radius: 10
- Interface Type: droplet
Using R Droplet = 2, Gamma γ = 3, the calculated result is 3.
