  2. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    where is the density of the fluid, is the average velocity in the pipe, is the friction factor from the Moody chart, is the length of the pipe and is the pipe diameter. The chart plots Darcy–Weisbach friction factor against Reynolds number Re for a variety of relative roughnesses, the ratio of the mean height of roughness of the pipe to the ...

  3. Hazen–Williams equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazen–Williams_equation

    The Hazen–Williams equation is an empirical relationship that relates the flow of water in a pipe with the physical properties of the pipe and the pressure drop caused by friction. It is used in the design of water pipe systems [ 1 ] such as fire sprinkler systems , [ 2 ] water supply networks , and irrigation systems.

  4. Marcus' method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus'_method

    Marcus's method is a structural analysis used in the design of reinforced concrete slabs.The method was developed by Henri Marcus and described in 1938 in Die Theorie elastischer Gewebe und ihre Anwendung auf die Berechnung biegsamer Platten. [1]

  5. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    where the roughness height ε is scaled to the pipe diameter D. Figure 3. Roughness function B vs. friction Reynolds number R ∗. The data fall on a single trajectory when plotted in this way. The regime R ∗ < 1 is effectively that of smooth pipe flow. For large R ∗, the roughness function B approaches a constant value.

  6. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    The Reynolds number Re is taken to be Re = V D / ν, where V is the mean velocity of fluid flow, D is the pipe diameter, and where ν is the kinematic viscosity μ / ρ, with μ the fluid's Dynamic viscosity, and ρ the fluid's density. The pipe's relative roughness ε / D, where ε is the pipe's effective roughness height and D the pipe ...

  7. Hardy Cross method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardy_Cross_method

    The Hardy Cross method can be used to calculate the flow distribution in a pipe network. Consider the example of a simple pipe flow network shown at the right. For this example, the in and out flows will be 10 liters per second. We will consider n to be 2, and the head loss per unit flow r, and initial flow guess for each pipe as follows:

  8. Fanning friction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanning_friction_factor

    From the chart, it is evident that the friction factor is never zero, even for smooth pipes because of some roughness at the microscopic level. The friction factor for laminar flow of Newtonian fluids in round tubes is often taken to be: [4] = [5] [2] where Re is the Reynolds number of the flow.

  9. Wood–Armer method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood–Armer_method

    The Wood–Armer method is a structural analysis method based on finite element analysis used to design the reinforcement for concrete slabs. [1] This method provides simple equations to design a concrete slab based on the output from a finite element analysis software.
