Solve Drying Room Issue: Calculate Air Flow Speed & Mass Flow Rate
Thank you a lot for your help! I did as you said and assumed that the flow was fully turbulent. From the Moody chart I obtained the friction factor. (f=0,0225) I then used the Darcy equation in a modified form that adds loss coefficients for pipe components (was given in my syllabus and it's...- Dr_awkward

Solve Drying Room Issue: Calculate Air Flow Speed & Mass Flow Rate
Hello everyone! Here is the problem: The air removal in a drying room is done via a pipe (length 6 m, diameter 100 mm and surface roughness 0,152mm). The pipe system is composed of a sharp edged entrance and 4 standard 90 degrees turns. The excess pressure in the dryer is 50 Pa. Calculate the...- Dr_awkward
