Calculate the pressure generated by a syringe pump according to 3 parameters:
- linear force of the syringe pump
- number of channels on the syringe pump (typically between 1 and 12)
- syringe barrel internal diameter
Example: a syringe pump with 12 channels and 1 mL Hamilton glass syringes (ID of 4.61 mm) generates a linear force of 35 lbs (15.88 kg). The resulting pressure in each channel (each syringe) will be 0.793 bar.
This calculator is based on the formula P = \frac{F}{n \pi\left(\frac{D}{2}\right)^2}, with P the pressure, F the linear force, n the number of syringe, and D the inner diameter of the syringe barrel.
