Loss of head in equivalent pipe Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Loss of head in equivalent pipe?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

H l = \frac{4 \cdot 16 \cdot (Q^{2}) \cdot μ \cdot L}{(π^{2}) \cdot 2 \cdot ({D eq}^{5}) \cdot [g]}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

H l = \frac{4 \cdot 16 \cdot ({0.025m³/s}^{2}) \cdot 0.01 \cdot 1200m}{(π^{2}) \cdot 2 \cdot ({0.165m}^{5}) \cdot [g]}

Next Step Substitute values of Constants

∴

H l = \frac{4 \cdot 16 \cdot ({0.025m³/s}^{2}) \cdot 0.01 \cdot 1200m}{({3.1416}^{2}) \cdot 2 \cdot ({0.165m}^{5}) \cdot 9.8066m/s²}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

H l = \frac{4 \cdot 16 \cdot ({0.025}^{2}) \cdot 0.01 \cdot 1200}{({3.1416}^{2}) \cdot 2 \cdot ({0.165}^{5}) \cdot 9.8066}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

H l = 20.2754779094366m

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

H l = 20.2755m
