Definition
P/ρ + v²/2 + g h = constant along a streamline (incompressible, inviscid, steady).
What it calculates
Bernoulli solve for P2, v2, or h2.
Inputs
  • mode P2|v2|h2
  • rho
  • P1,v1,h1
  • remaining side
Outputs
  • P2_Pa|v2_m_s|h2_m
Formula
P/ρ+v²/2+gh=const
Assumptions
  • Incompressible; inviscid; steady streamline
Units
  • Pa, m/s, m
Boundary conditions
  • v2 radicand < 0 → VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE
Example
h1=10 h2=0 v=0 → P2=P1+ρg·10

Frequently asked questions

Key distinctions behind the calculation.

Why can v2 fail?

If the radicand under the square root is negative, the state is physically inconsistent; API returns VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE.
