620ARCY-WEISBACH EQUATI0N
Consider auniform horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area A
carrying a liquid with mean velocity V, as shown Fig. 6.1. Let
1 1 and 2 -
- F1
Pli i P2
- FI
B Z1 Pa V Z2 + hf
2g 29
But, Z1 =
Z2 as pipe is horizontàl
P2 + hf
hy = P
(or) hf
(or) o h (P1 - P2) (1)
Let f be the frictional resistance per unit wetted area per
experiments is,
F1 f x wetted area x V2
1 and
2-2 are,
Pressure force at section 1 - 1 = P2 A
(i)
Pressure force at section 2 - 2 P2A
(ii)
(ii) Frictional resistance F1 as shown in Fig
Resolving all the forces horizontally, we have
P1A - P2 A - F1 0
(or) (P1-P2)A = F1
= PLV2
hf A
h; = Ly2 (4)
(or) A
hf LiLv? .

Putting 2
Where is known coefficient of friction.
f as
h LV2
4 fLV2
(or) hf =
2 gd (6)
Equation (6)_is known as Darcy-weisbach equation. This
equation is used finding loss of head due to friction in pipes.
fLV2
Sometimes equation (6) is written as
h 2 gd
Here 'f is know as friction factor.
