    Darcy Friction Loss Calculator For Pipes, Fittings & Valves: Given Data

    Uploaded by

    Joh Songtham
    This document calculates the Darcy friction loss for a pipe system with the following characteristics: - The pipe is 230m long with an inner diameter of 53.7mm - It carries a flow rate of 8m3/hr (0.00222 m3/s) of a liquid with a kinematic viscosity of 1 cSt - The calculated total head loss is 5.06m, of which 4.34m is due to pipe friction and 0.72m is due to fittings, valves and pipe entries/exits in the system.
