I am looking formula to calculate pressure drop in a liquid pipe and to determine a suitable diameter of pipe to use for the application.
Formula to Calculate drop Pressure in Liquid Pipe
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the formula for calculating pressure drop in liquid pipes and determining the appropriate pipe diameter for specific applications. Key formulas mentioned include the Darcy-Weisbach equation and the Hazen-Williams equation, which are essential for accurate pressure drop calculations. Participants emphasize the importance of using constant values such as fluid density and viscosity, along with pipe length and roughness, to achieve precise results. An example calculation is requested to illustrate the application of these formulas.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of fluid dynamics principles
- Familiarity with the Darcy-Weisbach equation
- Knowledge of the Hazen-Williams equation
- Basic skills in unit conversion and dimensional analysis
