Hello,
I was wondering if when calculating the fanning friction factor, do english units need to be used?
The equation for the head friction is
h_f = 4f(L/D)V^2/2
where L is the length, D is the diameter of the pipe, and f is the fanning friction factor. This ends up having units of length squared/time squared, but I think it should be power/mass
