Calculation
Resistance coefficients
(1) Acceleration from 0 " w (2) I nlet contraction in the case of angular inlet (3) G ate valve with full cross section Gate valve with constriction DIN straight-way valve DN 200 (4) Pipe bend D/d = 3; 90 (5) for pipe friction losses l = Pipe friction coefficient according to fig. 2 l = Pipe length in m d = Pipe diameter in m
Example
Piping DN 200 Velocity Pressure (inlet) (1) Acceleration from 0 " w (2) Angular inlet (3) 1 gate valve with full passage (4) 3 pipe bends 90 (5) Pipe length
Calculation
d = 0.2 m w= p1 = 50 mbar
l = 13 m
Total resistance coefficient (1) for accelaration (2) ) for inlet contraction (3) 1 gate valve Temperature in C (4) 3 pipe bends (5) f or pipe friction from fig. 2 l = 0.024
SL = Saturated line
Determination of the pressure loss The pressure loss with air at the same temperature is 1.6 times greater.
