PRESSURE LOSSES WITHIN DUCTING SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS FOR INCOMPRESSIBLE FLOW
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4052732
>A collection of pertinent charts and formulas for the evaluation of pressure drops in duct systems having isothermal "" incompressible'' flow is presented. Most of the common duct components were considered, including valves, diffusers, and sections of irregular construction. Pressure loss factors and friction factors for varying relative roughness and Reynolds number are given. Formulas for calculating pressure drops in straight ducts of various cross sections are presented. Pressure drop relations for duct fittings and connections, tunning vane information, a sample problem, a basic comparison between compressible and incompressible flow, and a discussion of the application of a curved duct relationship to the solution of a wavy plate pressure drop problem are included.
