How do I calculate pressure drop in a pipeline?

AI Thread Summary
To calculate pressure drop in a pipeline, it's essential to compile the pressure drop (dp) values for each component, including equipment and valves. Users can interlink these values by creating a spreadsheet that aggregates the pressure drops from each element. Manufacturers often provide specific pressure drop data for their equipment, which can be crucial for accurate calculations. For specific components like scrubbers, it's important to gather dp values from all relevant parts, such as dermisters and cyclones. Utilizing resources like Engineers Edge can further aid in understanding pressure drop calculations.

Anybody can help me for calculating pressure drop in pipeline. I really appreciate the suggestions from your side. i have the values of dp for equipments and valves...i want to know how to interlink with these dp values for calculation...i want to know, how to calculate the dp of scrubber. i had the dp of dermister, cyclone and Schoepentoeter in scrubber...

Generally for a semi a complicated process i'd put together a spreadsheet listing the pressure drop of each element. The manufacturers can provide the pressure drops for the equipment.
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
