Pipe friction head loss
This functionality is in
beta stage
.
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
$$ Hf_{pipe} = {f_{Darcy} \cdot \left({ \left({ L_{pipe} \cdot V_{fluid} ^ 2 }\right) \over \left({ ID_{pipe} \cdot 2 \cdot g }\right) }\right)} \; \; , m $$
