Pipe friction head loss

public

Calculates head loss due to wall friction in pipelines using Darcy friction factor.

Input

Pipe length

$ L_{pipe} = 100 \: m $

Fluid velosity

$ V_{fluid} = 3 \: m/s $

Pipe internal diameter

$ ID_{pipe} = 0.25 \: m $

Friction factor

$ f_{Darcy} = 0.0197 \: $

Result

Head loss

$$ Hf_{pipe} = {f_{Darcy} \cdot \left({ \left({ L_{pipe} \cdot V_{fluid} ^ 2 }\right) \over \left({ ID_{pipe} \cdot 2 \cdot g }\right) }\right)} \:, m $$
