I use MathCAd to calculating but today I have a problem:

My problem is using matris I take some data in excel (vizcosity density etc) files and I want to calculte pressure drop this properity is change with temperature my problem about using matris. error message says your variable is not scalar because If I use G^2. on the other hand I multiplicate with itself G.G is give result very big I understand it multiplicate element by element

What a strange equation!

Viscosity appears in the numerator while calculating Reynolds' Number. Most pressure drop in pipes calculations involve the raising of Reynolds' Number to some non-unity power.

I use Mathcad on a daily basis at work so may be able to help you out here.

I need to see a picture of what is wrong though to aid the understanding. There are others out there on this forum who could help too I believe and a picture would be beneficial to all.
