    How to Determine Volume Airflow Rate for CTIS Head Loss Calculations?

    Sorry I took a while to get back to this. Been bogged down at work. Everything looks pretty consistent with what I used for my analysis. One difference is that I used the Moody diagram to find the complete turbulent friction factor whereas Pipe FLO uses Nukuradse's equation. I'm not sure...

    How to Determine Volume Airflow Rate for CTIS Head Loss Calculations?

    Thank you for the response! I'm going to try and read this through tomorrow and re-evaluate my calculations. I'll let you know how it goes.

    How to Determine Volume Airflow Rate for CTIS Head Loss Calculations?

    Sorry if I'm unclear, but I don't know much about fluids, beside what I've read online. I've modeled the minor and major losses analytically to the best of my knowledge, but my problem is that I am assuming a volume flow rate for my model. I want to check calculations against the actual...

    How to Determine Volume Airflow Rate for CTIS Head Loss Calculations?

    Hi, I have a fluid dynamic question. I need to know the volume airflow rate (cfm) for head loss calculations in my CTIS (central tire inflation system). My goal is to use this info to come up with an analytical model of the system. Our facility has an air compressor that is set to 72 psi...

    Calculating Head Loss in a Mitre Bend Air Passage for Beginners

    I appreciate your sharing this knowledge site with me, but I do not think this is helping me. I've already read through many of these short guides and for some reason I can't find what I am looking for. My problem stems from the fact that none of the charts that I can find have the specific...

    Calculating Head Loss in a Mitre Bend Air Passage for Beginners

    I am trying to find the total head loss of an air passageway system but I have not taken a fluids class. I have been trying to teach myself the equations and principles but it tends to be very confusing without guidance. So here is my question: I have a wheel-end knuckle with an air passage...
