Performs head losses calculations in curves with a known value of $\frac{R}{D}$, and in elbows ($\frac{R}{D}$ = 1). There are two options:
$\frac{R}{D}$ | 1 | 1.5 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
k | 0.48 | 0.36 | 0.27 | 0.21 | 0.27 | 0.36 |
Given the flow, the pipe diameter and the relation $\frac{R}{D}$, calculates the corresponding head loss.
Given the pipe diameter and the relation $\frac{R}{D}$, calculates the head losses coefficients corresponding to the expressions:
k applicable to the expression: $$ h_f = k. \frac{U^2}{2g} $$
kQ applicable to the expression: $$ h_f = k_Q. Q^2
$$
