Q323

Pressure drop due to pipe fittings can be estimated by the equation, p = 4 f. L_ e D. V^22 gc, where, Le = equivalent length of straight pipeline which will incur the same frictional loss as the fitting and D = diameter of the fitting. The value of L_ e D (dimensionless) for 45° elbow and 180° close return bends would be respectively around
