Pressure drop calculation in pipe and fittings

What is Pressure Loss? Pressure loss refers to the reduction in pressure as a fluid flows through a pipe due to friction and other resistances.

Calculating pressure loss is crucial for designing efficient piping systems, ensuring adequate fluid flow, and optimizing energy consumption.

Applications: This calculator is valuable in various fields including civil engineering, industrial processes, HVAC systems, agriculture irrigation, and any industry involving fluid transport.

Usage Instructions

Step-by-Step Guide:

• Enter the Flow Rate in cubic meters per second (m³/s).
• Input the Pipe Diameter in meters (m).
• Provide the Pipe Length in meters (m).
• Enter the Fluid Density in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
• Input the Fluid Dynamic Viscosity in Pascal-seconds (Pa·s).
• Click the Calculate Pressure Loss button to obtain the results.

Example: If you have a flow rate of 0.01 m³/s, a pipe diameter of 0.1 m, a pipe length of 50 m, a fluid density of 998 kg/m³ (water), and a viscosity o
