<> The system is chilled water with a supply temperature of 40°F and a return of 50°F. This is a no-win mistake.

In laminar flow (that is, with Re < ~2000), the hydraulic slope is proportional to the flow velocity. There is even more to be concerned about.
The following table gives Reynolds number Re, Darcy friction factor fD, flow rate Q, and velocity V such that hydraulic slope S = hf / L = 0.01, for a variety of nominal pipe (NPS) sizes. is the length of the pipe in 100ft.

Friction loss is a significant economic concern wherever fluids are made to flow, whether entirely enclosed in a pipe or duct, or with a surface open to the air. If we assume the correction factor of 5.90/4.01 = 47% for the entire 80 feet and correct the flow rate, we will now need 284 GPM at 117 feet. h 100ft = 0.2083 (100 / 140) 1.852 (200 gal/min) 1.852 / (3.048 in) 4.8655 = 9 ft H 2 O / 100 ft pipe. If this was a variable speed pump, could we Overspeed it and make up the difference? ′ Because of the importance of friction loss in civil engineering and in industry, it has been studied extensively for over a century. [9][18] The chart exhibited in this section can be used to graphically determine the required diameter of duct to be installed in an application where the volume of flow is determined and where the goal is to keep the pressure loss per unit length of duct S below some target value in all portions of the system under study. Friction loss, which is due to the shear stress between the pipe surface and the fluid flowing within, depends on the conditions of flow and the physical properties of the system. Δ Furthermore, it varies as well with the flow velocity V and on the physical properties of the fluid (usually cast together into the Reynolds number Re). The difference in the character of the flow from the case of water in a pipe stems from the differing Reynolds number Re and the roughness of the duct.
Next scan horizontally to the needed flow volume Q, say 1 m3 / s (2000 cfm): the choice of duct with diameter D = 0.5 m (20 in.) Deppmann. Natural flows in river beds are important to human activity; friction loss in a stream bed has an effect on the height of the flow, particularly significant during flooding. Usually denoted by ε, values used for calculations of water flow, for some representative materials are:[4][5][6], Values used in calculating friction loss in ducts (for, e.g., air) are:[9], Laminar flow is encountered in practice with very viscous fluids, such as motor oil, flowing through small-diameter tubes, at low velocity. Not something we want to miss. Friction loss is then the change in pressure Δp per unit length of pipe L. When the pressure is expressed in terms of the equivalent height of a column of that fluid, as is common with water, the friction loss is expressed as S, the "head loss" per length of pipe, a dimensionless quantity also known as the hydraulic slope. This would be a real issue if we missed this in the calculations! Glycol is heavier than water at this temperature. For specific choices of duct material, and assuming air at standard temperature and pressure (STP), standard charts can be used to calculate the expected friction loss.
In the September 23rd R. L. Deppmann Monday Morning Minute, I indicated the need to change the flow rate from 267 GPM to 284 GPM to get the same heat transfer load we had when the system used water only.
Let’s look at an example system using 267 GPM of water in 4” steel pipe. Wells and domestic water systems must be engineered for effective and economical operation. Just changing to glycol and keeping the same capacities results in BHP increasing to 7.84 HP. That is an increase of almost 9% before we even change capacities. V̇ = πr2v, In long pipes, the loss in pressure (assuming the pipe is level) is proportional to the length of pipe involved. Secondary Pumps Constant Primary Flow (CPF) 5. Thus, the friction loss is not precisely proportional to the flow velocity squared, nor to the inverse of the pipe diameter: the friction factor takes account of the remaining dependency on these parameters. Also note that the given fD in this table is actually a quantity adopted by the NFPA and the industry, known as C, which has the imperial units psi/(100 gpm2ft) and can be calculated using the following relation: where The Yamal–Europe pipeline carries methane at a volume flow rate of 32.3 × 10.

Pipe pressure drop calculator for two phase flows. endobj What is the friction loss in the pipe?
Now let’s look when we correct the pump requirement to 284 GPM at 117 feet. All Rights Reserved. We cannot use the 4” pipe correction as a universal correction since the velocity and Reynolds number also affects the change in friction loss. is the flow in 100gpm and With these quantities as inputs, the friction factor fD can be expressed in closed form in the Colebrook–White equation or other fitting function, and the flow volume Q and flow velocity V can be calculated therefrom. JTHOMPSON In the smooth pipe domain, friction loss is relatively insensitive to roughness. volume of fluid flowing)
From experimental measurements, the general features of the variation of fD are, for fixed relative roughness ε / D and for Reynolds number Re = V D / ν > ~2000,[a]. In fluid flow, friction loss (or skin friction) is the loss of pressure or “head” that occurs in pipe or duct flow due to the effect of the fluid's viscosity near the surface of the pipe or duct. 1 0 obj The range of Re and ε /, At values of 2000 < Re < 4000, there is a, This page was last edited on 14 October 2020, at 18:41. The water selection below shows a 9.375” impeller and a 10 HP motor with a brake horsepower (BHP) at design of 7.21 HP. Also check the friction loss in feet of water per 100 feet. Today we look at the friction loss in pipes when using ethylene or propylene glycols instead of water. This is well above the manufacturer’s suggested maximum of 120% of speed.
