Where λj is Hazen-William roughness coefficient of pipe j, Δhj is the head loss in pipe j, Lj and Dj are the length and diameter of pipe j in m, Qj is the flow through jth pipeline in m3/s and γ is the factor depending on the dimensional system used, is 10.7 when SI system...
CC— Roughness coefficient; RR— Hydraulic radius (in meters or feet depending on the unit system) - check the hydraulic radius calculator to learn more; SS— Slope of the energy line (frictional head loss per length of pipe). It is unitless, but sometimes expressed in m/m; and kk— Co...
Its roughness coefficient isonly 0.009. Its water delivery capacity is 20% higher than that of cast iron pipes of the same pipe diameter and 40% higher than that of concrete pipes. 3. Excellent corrosion resistance and chemical resistance: PVC-U pipes ...
You can also supply your own Internal surface absolute roughness with the Custom setting. ρI is the internal fluid density. When the Local resistances specification parameter is set to Local loss coefficient and the flow in the pipe is lower than the Laminar flow upper Reynolds number limit, ...
The block approximates this value by using the empirical Haaland equation and the Internal surface absolute roughness parameter. The block takes the differential over each half of the pipe segment, between port A to an internal node, and between the internal node and port B. Pressure ...
Its roughness coefficient is only 0.009. Its water delivery capacity is 20% higher than that of cast iron pipes of the same pipe diameter and 40% higher than that of concrete pipes. 3. Excellent corrosion resistance and chemical resistance: PVC-U pipes have excellent acid ...

With smooth inner wall and low fluid resistance, PVC-U pipe isn’t adhered with scale because of its lower roughness coefficient (0.009) than that of another pipe. Moreover, based on the same pipe size, the flow rate of PVC-U pipe is higher than that of another pipe. With excellent hy...
