Principles of Friction Loss Flashcards
1
Q
1st
A
Friction loss with vary directly with the length of hose or pipe
2
Q
2nd
A
Friction loss varies approximately with the square of the increase in velocity of flow
3
Q
3rd
A
When flow remains constant the friction loss in a hose will decrease when the diameter of the hose is increased
4
Q
4th
A
For any given flow velocity, friction loss is independent of pressure. Velocity causes friction loss
