I have a problem. I am searching for a set of equations for a flow problem. You have water pipe system and there is a circumferential break of 1/8". How much water am I loosing through this gap. Pipe sizes vary, assume contant pressure and wall thickness varies. The pipe material is DIP (Ductile Iron Pipe). I don't know if there are other parameters needed. So I am looking for the equations used to determine the water lose for this kind of situation. Thanks. |

have you tried Crane? Great for example problems of this sort and full of equations etc. |

I don't know if there's a website to be honest - you could try googling it - in any case, the full title of the book is:
"Flow of Fluids through Valves, Fittings and Pipe" by Crane 1988 (Crane being Crane Ltd, Suffolk, England) - I find it great for general flow problems - it's got stuff like Bernoulli and k values and specific gravities and all sorts of stuff....let me know if you get anywhere and I'll try to help if you don't. |
