Chapter 0 – Problem 0.30
0.30 Compute and tabulate the unit friction headlosses (headloss per 1000 m of pipe) for pipelines with the range of diameters shown in the following table. The flow velocity in each pipeline is 2.2 m/s (which is the generally accepted maximum value in water pipeline systems). Assume that each pipeline is 2500 m long. Use either the Darcy-Weisbach equation (with a roughness element size of 0.15 mm for all pipe sizes) or the Hazen-William equation (with a roughness coefficient of 130 for all pipe sizes).
