Fluid Mechanics Lesson 08F: Pipe Flow Minor Losses

Fluid Mechanics Lesson Series - Lesson 08F: Pipe Flow Minor Losses In this 15-minute video, Professor Cimbala shows how to account for so-called minor losses in pipe flows, by using either equivalent length or minor loss coefficient. He shows values of the coefficient for elbows, inlets, outlets, and other minor losses. Finally, he does two example problems to illustrate how to apply minor losses to pipe flow systems. This video incorporates material from Section 8-6 of the Fluid Mechanics textbook by Cengel and Cimbala.
