AFT055 Installation Technology Losses In Different Pipes Didactic Equipment Teaching Thermal Transfer Demonstrational Equipment
Description
• pressure loss in pipes
• different materials and diameters
When flow passes through pipes, pressure losses occur due to the friction between the pipe wall and the water.
The pressure loss is directly dependent on the surface roughness of the pipe inner wall, and thus on the material used.
In addition, the pressure loss is affected by the flow velocity and the cross-sectional area being flowed through.

Learning objectives/experiments
• investigation of the pressure losses of flow through pipes
· measurement of the pressure differential on different pipe sections
· influence of various pipe diameters
· influence of different materials and surface roughness
· effect of the flow velocity
· comparison between experiment and theory
