Inertance
Inertance is the ratio of an acceleration-like quantity to a force-like quantity when the arguments of the real (or imaginary) parts of quantities increase linearly with time.
- Describes the inertial properties of a gas in a duct.
- where
- L = inertance [kgm-4]
- ρ0 = density of the gas [kgm-3]
- Δx = incremental distance [m]
- A = cross-sectional area [m2]
- ρ0 = density of the gas [kgm-3]
