How to Calculate and Solve for Surface Roughness Parameter I Polymer Deformation
Last Updated on December 11, 2021
The image above represents surface roughness parameter.
To compute for surface roughness parameter, one essential parameter is needed and this parameter is Linear Roughness Parameter (RL).
The formula for calculating surface roughness parameter:
RS = 4/π(RL – 1) + 1
Where:
RS = Surface Roughness Parameter
RL = Linear Roughness Parameter
Let’s solve an example;
Find the surface roughness parameter when the linear roughness parameter is 12.
This implies that;
RL = Linear Roughness Parameter = 12
RS = 4/π(RL – 1) + 1
RS = 4/π(12 – 1) + 1
RS = (1.273)(11) + 1
RS = 14.00 + 1
RS = 15.00
Therefore, the surface roughness parameter is 15.00.
