  2. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DarcyWeisbach_equation

    The Darcy-Weisbach equation, combined with the Moody chart for calculating head losses in pipes, is traditionally attributed to Henry Darcy, Julius Weisbach, and Lewis Ferry Moody. However, the development of these formulas and charts also involved other scientists and engineers over its historical development.

  3. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    The Haaland equation was proposed in 1983 by Professor S.E. Haaland of the Norwegian Institute of Technology. [9] It is used to solve directly for the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f for a full-flowing circular pipe. It is an approximation of the implicit Colebrook–White equation, but the discrepancy from experimental data is well within ...

  4. Fanning friction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanning_friction_factor

    The Darcy Weisbach Formula , also called Moody friction factor, is 4 times the Fanning friction factor and so a factor of has been applied to produce the formula given below. Re, Reynolds number ; ε, roughness of the inner surface of the pipe (dimension of length);

  5. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    In engineering, the Moody chart or Moody diagram (also Stanton diagram) is a graph in non-dimensional form that relates the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f D, Reynolds number Re, and surface roughness for fully developed flow in a circular pipe. It can be used to predict pressure drop or flow rate down such a pipe.

  6. Henry Darcy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Darcy

    During this period he modified the Prony equation for calculating head loss due to friction, which after further modification by Julius Weisbach would become the well-known Darcy–Weisbach equation still in use today. In 1848 he became Chief Engineer for the département of which Dijon is the capital. Soon thereafter he left Dijon due to ...

  7. Friction loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction_loss

    Under turbulent flow, the friction loss is found to be roughly proportional to the square of the flow velocity and inversely proportional to the pipe diameter, that is, the friction loss follows the phenomenological Darcy–Weisbach equation in which the hydraulic slope S can be expressed [9]

  8. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    Once the friction factors of the pipes are obtained (or calculated from pipe friction laws such as the Darcy-Weisbach equation), we can consider how to calculate the flow rates and head losses on the network. Generally the head losses (potential differences) at each node are neglected, and a solution is sought for the steady-state flows on the ...

  9. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    Traditionally, most of theoretical models are based on Bernoulli equation after taking the frictional losses into account using a control volume (Fig. 2). The frictional loss is described using the Darcy–Weisbach equation. One obtains a governing equation of dividing flow as follows: Fig. 2. Control volume
