Physical properties of fluid and fluid transport in piping system
Laminar and turbulent flow in pipe
General energy equation - Bernoulli theorem
Flow in pipes and valves theory - full content
If friction losses are neglected and no energy is added to, or taken from a piping system, the total head, H,
which is the sum of the elevation head, the pressure head and the velocity head will be constant for any point
of fluid streamline.
This is the expression of law of energy conservation to the flow of fluid in a conduit or streamline and is known as
Bernoulli theorem:
where is:
- Z1,2 - elevation above reference level
- p1,2 - absolute pressure
- v1,2 - velocity
- &rho1,2 - density
- g - acceleration of gravity
<< Reynolds number -- Static, dynamic and total pressure >>
