COOLING WATER SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
Cooling towers are heat removal devices used to transfer process waste
heat to the atmosphere. Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of
water to remove process heat and cool the working fluid to near the wet-bulb
air temperature or in the case ofclosed circuit dry cooling towers rely solely
on air to cool the working fluid to near the dry-bulb air temperature.
Common applications include cooling the circulating water
APPLICATION
Process Plants
Cooling water is required in refinery, petrochemical, fertilizer & otherprocess plants for cooling & condensing various process streams.
Power PlantsIn power plants for condensing exhaust steam from the steamturbines.
Refrigeration PlantsIn refrigeration plants for condensing refrigerant vapors
TYPES OF COOLING WATER SYSTEMS
ONCE THROUGH CW SYSTEM
Raw water (from river, lake, tube well, sea etc) is pumped directly through
heat exchange equipment & return hot water is discharged as effluent from
the plant. Such system is used where water is available at very low cost.

RECIRCULATING CW SYSTEM
An open recirculating cooling system uses the same water repeatedly to coolprocess equipment. Heat absorbed from the process must be dissipated toallow reuse of the water. Cooling towers, spray ponds, and evaporativecondensers are used for this purpose.
Open recirculating cooling systems save a tremendous amount of freshwater compared to the alternative method, once-through cooling. Thequantity of water discharged to waste is greatly reduced in the openrecirculating method, and chemical treatment is more economical. However,open recirculating cooling systems are inherently subject to more treatment-related problems than once-through systems cooling by evaporationincreases the dissolved solids concentration in the water, raising corrosion

and deposition tendencies the relatively higher temperatures significantlyincrease corrosion potential.
In the longer retention time and warmer water in an open recirculatingsystem increase the tendency for biological growth .
Airborne gases such as sulfur dioxide, ammonia or hydrogen sulfide can beabsorbed from the air, causing higher corrosion rates .
microorganisms, nutrients, and potential foulants can also be absorbed intothe water across the tower.
SUPPLY PRESSURE
Supply pressure should be enough to meet pressure requirements of supply /
return headers, heat exchange equipment along with supply / return sub
headers , static head of cooling tower & mass flow meter.
COOLING OF RETURN HOT WATER
Return hot water from various process unit is collected in the return header
& is then cooled in cooling tower by contact with air for sensible heat
transfer & by evaporation.
RE CIRCULATION OF WATER
CW is pumped back to various heat exchange equipments in different units
again.
CONCENTRATION OF SOLIDS
Due to continuous evaporation of water in the cooling tower, concentration
of both dissolved & suspended solids in the water increases.
MAKE UP WATER
Raw water is added to account for the evaporation & other water losses from
the system depending on the return temperature, raw water analysis etc.
CHEMICAL TREATMENT
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
8/55
Characteristics of re circulating cooling water are controlled by addition of
chemicals, filtration system and by blow down. Re circulating water is
maintained in CW headers as non- corrosive and non-scaling at the
temperature of operation .
CLOSED CIRCUIT TEMPERED COOLING WATER SYSTEM
TYPICAL SYSTEM
Return hot water is cooled in a heat exchanger by a secondary cooling water
system. Cooled water flows down to a tank from where it is pumped again.
ADVANTAGES
Negligible water loss
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
9/55
Being close system, water loss is negligible, treated water like DM water or
soft water can be used.
Minimum chemical treatment
Problem of scaling & corrosion due to dissolved solids can totally beeliminated.
High Supply temperature
Supply temp is higher because return hot water is indirectly cooled in a heat
exchanger.
DISADVANTAGES
Applicable for small capacity systems only
Cooling high temperature fluids
Possible to cool high temp (45 oC) process fluids without corrosion and
scaling problem.
Heat exchange
Better heat exchange due to controlled quality of re-circulating water

COOLING TOWERS
TYPES OF COOLING TOWERS
Natural circulation towers
These are suitable for large cooling water duties and large cooling waterquantities. Positive air movement in calm weather is ensured by providing a
tall chimney.
Typical towers
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
11/55
By natural flow of air or natural draft is set up by a specially shaped tower
(hyperbolic tower). These depend mainly on natural wind movement through
the structure for cooling effect.
Draft requirement
Fairly tall & narrow construction is used to produce draft as well as
enough contact time at a small approach. Draft is created due to lower
density of warm exit air as compared to cold inlet air.
Mechanical draft towers
Use of fan
Such systems use fans to have control over air supply .Towers used with
packing have low pumping head & designed with 4oC approach (With wet
bulb temp 29oC ,cooling tower designed from 45 to 33oC)
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
12/55
Depending upon the position of fan, towers can be forced
or induced draft type
Forced draft type
Location of fan
Fan is situated at or near the bottom of the tower, can be located outside the
tower at an accessible place convenient for inspection, maintenance &
repairs.
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
13/55
Performance
No vibration problem.
Better air-water contacts (because air from fan directly contacts water
at high velocity) but hot & humid air leaving the tower at low velocityis sucked back by the fan, hence poor tower performance.
Air distribution is not uniform.
Induced draft counter flow type
Location of fan
Fan situated at the top, creating a vertical movement up the tower
across the packing in opposition to water flow. This makes the re-
circulation of used air impossible due to high outlet velocities.
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
14/55
Uniform air distribution .
Performance
Inspection, maintenance or repair of fans is difficult due to their top
location.
Maintenance cost of fans are more due to their hot & humid (corrosive)
conditions.
Induced draft with cross flow
Type of air flow
Fans create horizontal air flow as water falls across the air stream.
Air intake is across the full height of tower. Air quantity is increased
but L/G ratio (ratio of mass flow rates of water to air) is decreased.
Performance
Reduced L/G ratio gives better performance. Cross flow towers require
more ground area than counter flow but requires less pumping head
due to lower height of tower.
Type of packing
Choice depends on effectiveness of packing, design conditions &
cost of tower.
Packing is usually of wood or synthetic material for contact of air and
water. The water is uniformly distributed from the top of the tower on the
packing. The cooled water falls directly into the basin on which the cooling
tower is located.
COOLING TOWER CALCULATIONS METHOD

15/55
CAPACITY OF COOLING TOWER (CT)
The capacity of CT may be taken as 10-15 % higher than the capacity of
CW system. Margin is expected to take care of CT de rating with use in
future.
CT = 1.1 x C (OR 1.15 x C)
(Where C is CW system capacity.)
Number of cells are normally in multiples of 3500-4000 m3/hr
capacity(close to highest capacity available).
Basis of COC
It is based on individual constituents like chlorides, calcium, TDS etc in
make up water.
Considerations for design
As alkalinity is normally controlled by acid dosing, the modified
concentration of alkalinity and sulfate should be considered.
The constituent giving the minimum value of COC is taken for design.
LOSSES IN CW SYSTEM
EVAPORATION LOSS (E)
Contact of air and water in the cooling tower results in evaporation of
water, thus taking heat from hot water.
(This heat transfer depends on the temp which varies during day and
night, hence effect of sensible heat transfer is not considered in the
calculations.)
Entire heat load is assumed to be removed by evaporation.Based on this,
E = Q/ = CT x (TI -TO ) /

Where
E: evaporation loss from cooling tower, m3/hr
Q: heat load to be removed per hour from the return cooling water,
M.kcal/hr
- latent heat, kcal/T (based on average of CW inlet & outlet temp)
TI= inlet temp of water to cooling tower, OC
TO= outlet temp of water to CT, OC
Due to evaporation,water vapor is lost from the system, thus resulting in
concentration of the recirculating water
DRIFT LOSS (D)
During the air/water contact in the CT, some quantity ofwater isentrained in to the exit air in the form of mist & minute droplets , which is
finally lost from the system. This is known as drift loss.
Typical loss is 0.10.2 % of the recirculating rate.
D=(0.1 (or 0.2)/100) x RECIRCULATION RATE, M3/Hr
BLOW DOWN LOSS (B )
Some quantity of water is required to be blown down to maintain theconcentration of dissolved solids in the circulating water with in
acceptable limit.
Blow down quantity, B in m3/hr can be calculated by solving following two
equations.
By water balance,
M = E + D + B +X ----------------------(1)
By dissolved solid balance,
M. x = (D + B + X).y ----------------------(2)
Which gives,

INTRODUCTION OF PUMPS
1 PUMPS
A pump is an apparatus or machine for raising, driving, exhausting, or
compressing fluids or gases by means of a piston, plunger, or set of rotatingvanes. Pumps fall into two major groups: positive displacement pumps and
centrifugal pumps.
Classification of Pumps
POSITIVE DISPLACMENT PUMP
A positive displacement pump causes a fluid to move by trapping a fixed
amount of it then forcing (displacing) that trapped volume into the discharge
pipe. Positive displacement pumps deliver a definite quantity of fluid for each

stroke or revolution of the device. These pumps do not permit free flow of
fluid through the pump except for leakage past the close fitting parts. In this
class of pumps the volume of the liquid delivered is directly related to the
displacement of piston and increases directly with speed. It is not much
influenced by pressure. These pumps give a high discharge pressure and a
constant discharge rate.
Characteristics of Positive Displacement Pump
Positive Displacement Pumps, unlike a Centrifugal or Roto-dynamic Pumps,will produce the same flow at a given speed (RPM) no matter the dischargepressure. Positive Displacement Pumps are "constant flow machines"The dashed line shows actual positive displacement pump performance.This line reflects the fact that as the discharge pressure of the pump
increases, some amount of liquid will leak from the discharge of the pumpback to the pump suction, reducing the effective flow rate of thepump. The rate at
which liquid leaks from the pump discharge to its suction is calledslippage.
No shutoff head exists in this type of pump, so care must be taken to ensurethat the relief or safety valve is operational.
The proper use of this valve ensures that the appropriate pressure balance ismaintained within the pumping system. If the discharge cavity is closed, butthe pump is operating, the line or pipe that the liquid is moving through may
burst. This would be caused by the increasing amount of liquid being pushedtoward the discharge cavity. If the line bursts, all the liquid that wasattempting to move into the discharge cavity would pour out the pump,creating a large mess
1.2 CENTRIFUGAL PUMP

23/55
A centrifugal pump works by the conversion of the rotational kinetic energy,
typically from an electric motor or turbine, to an increased static fluid
pressure. This action is described by Bernoulli's principle. The rotation of the
pump impeller imparts kinetic energy to the fluid as it is drawn in from the
impeller eye (centre) and is forced outward through the impeller vanes to the
periphery. As the fluid exits the impeller, the fluid kinetic energy (velocity) is
then converted to (static) pressure due to the change in area the fluid
experiences in the volute section. Typically the volute shape of the pump
casing (increasing in volume), or the diffuser vanes (which serve to slow the
fluid, converting to kinetic energy in to
flow work) are responsible for the energy conversion. The energy conversion
results in an increased pressure on the downstream side of the pump,
causing flow

CENTRIFUGAL PUMP CURVES
PLUNGER PUMP
plunger pump is a type of positive displacement pump where the high-
pressure seal is stationary and a smooth cylindrical plunger slides though the
seal. This makes them different from piston pumps and allows them to beused at high pressures.
Piston pumps and plunger pumps are reciprocating pumps that use a plungeror piston to move media through a cylindrical chamber. The plunger orpiston is actuated by a steam powered, pneumatic, hydraulic, or electricdrive. Piston pumps and plunger pumps are also called well service pumps,high pressure pumps, or high viscosity pumps.
Piston pumps and plunger pumps use a cylindrical mechanism to create areciprocating motion along an axis, which then builds pressure in a cylinder
or working barrel to force gas or fluid through the pump. The pressure in thechamber actuates the valves at both the suction and discharge points.Plunger pumps are used in applications that could range from 70 to 2070bars. Piston pumps are used in lower pressure applications. The volume ofthe fluid discharged is equal to the area of the plunger or piston, multipliedby its stroke length. The overall capacity of the piston pumps and plungerpumps can be calculated with the area of the piston or plunger,the stroke

length, the number of pistons or plungers and the speed of the drive. Thepower needed from the drive is proportionalto the capacity of the pump.
Developing a Pump Performance Curve
A pump's performance is shown in its characteristics performance curve
where its capacity i.e. flow rate is plotted against its developed head. The
pump performance curve also shows its efficiency (BEP), required input
power (in BHP), NPSHr, speed (in RPM), and other information such as pump
size and type, impeller size, etc.
This curve is plotted for a constant speed (rpm) and a given impeller diameter (or
series of diameters). It is generated by tests performed by the pump manufacturer.
Normal Operating Range:
A typical performance curve is a plot of Total Head vs. Flow rate for a specific
impeller diameter. The plot starts at zero flow. The head at this point corresponds
to the shut-off head point of the pump. The curve then decreases to a point where
the flow is maximum and the head minimum. This point is sometimes called the
run-out point. The pump curve is relatively flat and the head decreases gradually
as the flow increases. This pattern is common for radial flow pumps. Beyond the
run-out point, the pump cannot operate. The pump's range of operation is from the
shut-off head point to the run-out point. Trying to run a pump off the right end of
the curve will result in pump cavitation and eventually destroy the pump.
1.3 CAVITATION
Avoiding Cavitation
Cavitations can in general be avoided by increasing the difference betweenthe actual local static pressure in the fluid - and the vapor pressure of thefluid at the actual temperature
Cavitation is the collapse of bubbles that are
formed in the eye of the impeller due to low
pressure. The implosion of the bubbles on
the inside of the vanes creates pitting and
erosion that damages the impeller. The
design of the pump, the pressure andtemperature of the liquid that enters the
pump suction determines whether the fluids
will cavitate or not
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cavitation -
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
26/55
This can be done by:
increasing the total or local static pressure in the system reducing the temperature of the fluid
1.4 NPSH
NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) shows the difference, in any cross-section of a generic hydraulic circuit, between the pressure and the liquidvapor pressure in that section.
NPSH is an important parameter, to be taken into account when designing a
circuit : whenever the liquid stagnation pressure drops below the vaporpressure, liquid boiling occurs, and the final effect will be cavitation: vaporbubbles may reduce or stop the liquid flow. Centrifugal pumps areparticularly vulnerable, whereas positive displacement pumps are lessaffected by cavitation, as they are better able to pump two-phase flow (themixture of gas and liquid),
The violent collapse of the cavitation bubble creates a shock wave that canliterally carve material from internal pump components (usually the leadingedge of the impeller) and creates noise that is most often described as"pumping gravel". Additionally, the inevitable increase in vibration can cause
other mechanical faults in the pump and associated equipment. Consideringthe circuit shown in the picture,
where hL is the head loss between 0 and 1, p0 is the pressure at the watersurface, pv is the vapor pressure (saturation pressure) for the fluid at thetemperature T1 at 1, z is the difference in height z1 z0 (shown as H on thediagram) from the water surface to the location 1, and is the fluid density,assumed constant, and g is gravitational acceleration.

7/30/2019 Anuj Report
27/55
NPSH is of two types:
NPSHa: It can essentially be defined as the total head available at the
suction flange of pump. It includes the static suction head, losses in the
line and the vapor pressure head of the fluid being pumped and is afunction of the system.
NPSHr: It can be defined as the minimum head required to overcome thefrictional losses in the pump from the suction flange to the pump impellereye, including the vapor pressure head. It is basically the minimum value ofhead at suction flange at which the cavitation occurs. It is specified by thepump vendor and hence is a property of only the pump and not the system.
1.8 PUMP DESIGN
Suction Pressure:
Suction pressure = (Source pressure) + (Static head) ( P in pump suction).
Where,Source pressure =Operating pressure of the source vessel/ column/ tank.
Static Head= Static pressure difference due to the liquid head betweenpump centre
lineand Source vessel/ column BTL.
P in pump suction = ( P suction line) + ( P suction strainer) + ( P in heat exchangers, control valves, other instruments if any
in suction)
Where, P in suction line = line friction losses in the suction line.
Discharge Pressure:
Discharge pressure = ( Destination pressure) + (static head) +( P in pump discharge Circuit) + (contingency)
Where,Static Head= Static pressure difference due to the liquid head betweenpump centre
line and Destination vessel/ column BTL.

P discharge line = line friction losses in the discharge line.
Contingency = 1.0 kg/cm2. This is kept to take care of anyunforeseen
additional requirement of P in the discharge circuit.

DESIGN PRESSURE
Design pressure = Maximum suction pressure + Maximumdifferential pressure.
Where,
Maximum suction pressure = Max source pressure + static head
Where,
Maximum source pressure = Design pressure of source vessel
Maximum differential pressure = 1.25 * Differential pressure.

required when cycle of concentration of re- circulating water depends on
adjustment of alkalinity to fix COC. It is also used to reduce pH of re-
circulating water
Main & day tank:
Main storage
Acid through road tanker is unloaded in to a storage tank with unloading
arm cum transfer pumps.

From storage tank, acid is transferred to an elevated day tank with the
same pump.. Day tank is usually horizontal cylindrical type with height
not exceeding 1.5 meter to minimize variation in acid flow due to change
in the level in the tank.
CALCULATION METHOD FOR ACID DOSING
TREATMENT CHEMICALS REQUIREMENT
SULPHURIC ACID
Steps for calculating the acid requirement are as follows:
Possible reactions are as below
H2SO4+ Ca(OH)2 Ca SO4+2H2O (1)
H2SO4+ CaCO3 CaSO4+ CO2 +H20 (2)
H2SO4 +Ca (HCO3)2 CaSO4 +2CO2 + 2H2O (3)
Alkalinity may be due to OH-, HCO3- AND CO3-- groups with alkaline metals
like Ca, Mg and Na. All three anions groups can not be present at a time in
water. Alkalinity is reported in terms of CaCO3, reaction is presented by
equation (2).
The acid required to remove alkalinity from cooling water may be
calculated as follows:
A = K x 98 / (1OO x 0.98 ) (OR A=K )
where
A= CONCENTRATION OF SULPHURIC ACID REQUIRED (98 %)
K= TOTAL ALKALANITY REMOVED, KG/HR
K=[W- Z/Cc ] x M x 10-3

LINE SIZING
The term Line sizing literally refers to Calculation of pipe diameter for agiven flow of a particular fluid through a pipe under specific operatingtemperature & pressure.
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
44/55
Pipe sizing is one of the most important jobs of a process engineer. Piping isa major cost component in any process plant. It may vary between 5 to 15%of the total plant investment and optimum design may result in considerablecost reduction. Therefore, it becomes necessary that extreme care should betaken while sizing process piping.
Economic Consideration
Economics play a major role in pipe sizing especially when a pump orcompressor is required to impart the energy for flow to take place. As pipesize increases, investment for piping increases but pipe line has lesspressure drop resulting in less pumping cost. An economic balance for twocounteracting effects is required to be made. Recommended economicvelocity and pressure drop for various conditions are given in Table below.Generally these values should be used to get an economic pipe size.However, in case of long lines, special materials of construction etc., it may
become necessary to do economic evaluation for individual cases.
Velocity and Pressure Drop Considerations
These considerations become important when fluid flow under gravity, underits own pressure or certain pressure has to be dropped in flow system. Asimple example could be a pump discharge line branching to a high pressureas well as low pressure destinations. The branch line to low pressuredestination has to absorb the pump discharge pressure rated on the basis ofpressure required for high pressuredestinations. Sometimes it may not be possible to absorb entire pressure in
pipe line because of excessive velocity and additional restrictions to flowmay be necessary. In such cases the size of the line is not governed byeconomic considerations.
Structural & Mechanical Requirements
Mechanical strength of pipe reduces as diameter decreases. Small size pipeshave greater tendency to sag when they are erected and additional supports/ guides become necessary to keep them in position. It is, therefore,recommended to use 1.5 as minimum pipe size on pipe rack and sleepers.Only in exceptional cases (like very costly material of construction, etc.)lower sizes should be considered. However, short lines, which do not run on
racks like piping vents, drains, miscellaneous connections for process pumps,sample connections etc can be of smaller pipe diameter.
Unusual Flow Situations
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
45/55
Unusual flow situations which can occur in process piping should be avoidedas far as possible by properly selecting the pipe size. Some of these unusualsituations are described below:
(a) Vortexing
Liquid drawn from a vessel can entrap vapours (or lighter liquid if two liquidphases exist) by a vortex if velocity in the pipe line is more than certain limit.Vortexing is undesirable because it not only affects the performance ofcomponents like pumps and control valves, but may damage them also.Liquid outlet lines from vessels should be sized for less than vortexingvelocity.
(b) Vibrations: There is little known at present about the effects of flowconditions on vibration, because factors other than flow conditions (likepiping supports) are also important. But it is evident that higher velocity willfavor vibrations. The most common instances of vibration in piping are
following: Lines with very high velocity
Transfer lines from heaters to columns
Two phase flow lines having many changes in flow direction
Lines downstream of control valves in flashing service or havinghigh pressure drop
A bend very close to pump discharge line,
Pulsating / fluctuating flow lines, etcThe occurrences are completely unpredictable. Normally it can be knownonly after start up and rectified by mechanical or structural reinforcement.
( c ) Water HammerShock due to water hammer generally prevails in lines equipped with checkvalves, quick closing valves (plug, butterfly, ball valves) or in lines connectedto reciprocating pumps. Improper sizing of condensate lines, malfunctioningof steam traps can also cause water hammering. In lines prone to frequentwater hammer viz. product loading lines, shock absorbers should beprovided.
Velocity Limitations
In certain situations, minimum and maximum velocity limits are dictated by
process conditions rather than economics etc. These situations are describedbelow:
(a) Erosion VelocityVelocity in any piping system should be below erosion velocity limitotherwise pipe material will start eroding and will soon lead to a failure.Erosion velocity for single
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
46/55
phase line is too high to occur in practice. For two phase hydrocarbon liquidand vapour lines, erosion velocity is given by
VEro = 122 / (Density in kg/M3)1/2 M/sec for continuous
service= 195 / (Density in kg/M3)1/2 M/sec for intermittent
service
(b) Erosion of Protective LayerSometimes certain corrosion inhibitors are used in flowing material whichform a protective layer on the inner surface of pipes. If velocity exceedscertain limits, the protective layer gets eroded and corrosion inhibitorbecomes ineffective. Velocity limitations in such cases come from themanufacturers of corrosion inhibitors.
( c ) Settling of Solid ParticlesIf solid particles are suspended in a liquid phase, they should not be allowedto settle down in the pipe line. To avoid such settling, a minimum velocity ofabout 0.9 M/S should be maintained in the pipe.
Equipment Limitations
Sometimes equipment specifications govern line size. For example pumpsuction lines should be sized to take care of pump NPSH requirements.In some cases where a new pipe is to be provided in existing plant, the
available space may dictate pipe size. This consideration becomes veryimportant in expansion / debottlenecking projects.
Availability of Pipe Sizes
The line sizes shall be limited to available standard sizes of pipes. In generalthese are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24,26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 42, 48 inches etc.Basic Data Required
1. State of Fluid
Designer should know if fluid is liquid or vapour or mixed phase. It isimportant because the physical properties are widely different depending onthe state of the fluid. Separate charts are to be used for liquid, vapour andtwo phase flow lines.
2. Flow Rate
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
47/55
The flow rates for line sizing shall correspond to the maximum fluidquantities established by process design conditions. Flow rate shall beexpressed in M3/Hr forliquids and in kg/Hr for vapour lines. If line has to handle different flow ratesor different materials at different times, line size shall be calculated for all
cases independently and then proper size which will suit to all conditionsshall be selected. Lower flow rates are not to be ignored without properanalysis. Sometimes they govern design conditions.
3. Fluid PropertiesThe fluid properties namely density and viscosity shall be specified at thefollowing conditions. Generally these shall be average values for the lengthof the line. In cases where extreme variations occur in these properties overthe pipe length, the total length of pipe shall bedivided appropriately in small sections and average properties over small
sections shall be usedfor purpose of line sizing. This is specifically required in case of compressiblefluids
4. Equivalent Length of Pipeline
To calculate total pressure drop in pipeline, its equivalent length is required.Equivalent length consists of two components namely straight length of pipeand equivalent straight length of various pipe fittings and valves. The latercomponent takes care of additional pressure drop due to valves and pipefittings.
Determine the total length of all horizontal and vertical pipe runs
Determine the number of valves and fittings in the pipe
Determine the means of incorporating the valves and fittings intothe Darcy equation
To accomplish this most engineers use a table ofequivalent lengths this table lists the valves and fittingsand an associated length of straight pipe of the samediameter, which will incur the same pressure loss as thatvalve or fitting
The total equivalent length is usually added to the total straightpipe length to give total pipe equivalent length
This total equivalent length is substituted for L in Darcy equationto obtain the pressure loss in pipe
PRESSURE DROP CALCULATION METHOD
-
7/30/2019 Anuj Report
48/55
Pressure drop is a term used to describe the decrease in pressure from one
point in a pipe or tube to another downstream. This is usually the result of
friction of the fluid against the tube. Tube convergence, divergence, turns
and other physical properties will affect the pressure drop. High flow rates in
small tubes give larger pressure drop. Low flow rates in large tubes give
lower pressure drop
DarcyWeisbach equationIn fluid dynamics, the DarcyWeisbach equationis a phenomenological equation, which relates the head loss or pressure
loss due to friction along a given length of pipe to the average velocity of
the fluid flow.
The DarcyWeisbach equation contains a dimensionless friction factor, known as the
Darcy friction factor. This is also called the DarcyWeisbach friction factor or Moody
friction factor. The Darcy friction factor is four times the Fanning frictionfactor, with which it should not be confused.
Head loss formHead loss can be calculated with
Where,
hf is the head loss due to friction; L is the length of the pipe; D is the
hydraulic diameter of the pipe (for a pipe of circular section, this equals the
internal diameter of the pipe); V is the average velocity of the fluid flow,equal to the volumetric flow rate per unit cross-
sectional wetted area; g is the local acceleration due to gravity & f is a
dimensionless coefficient called the Darcy friction factor. It can be found out
from a Moody diagram.

Given that the head losshf expresses the pressure loss p as the height of acolumn of fluid,
Where is the density of the fluid, the DarcyWeisbach
equation can also be written in terms of pressure loss:
Where the pressure loss due to friction p is a function of:
the ratio of the length to diameter of the pipe, L/D; the density of the fluid, ; the average velocity of the flow, V, as defined above;
a (dimensionless) coefficient oflaminar, or turbulent flow, f.
