Calculation of pressure drop between point A to F refer
figure.3
Darcy-Weisbach Equation (Pipe friction)
hL = hLpipe + hLfitting
(i)
hLpipe = LV2 / D2g
(ii)
hLfitting = kfitting V2 /2g (iii)
Fig. 4 Side view of proposed steam piping layout (left hand
side) from EL (+) 39.665 meter to 28.200 meter.
hLpipe =
0.336 x 2 x 9.81
hLpipe = 0.751 m
In fig. 3: B to C & D to E are 450 bend so friction in that
area is(k(BC)+k(DE)) x V2
hLfitting =
2g
From table A- value of k for long radius 450 bend & 12-16
inch nominal pipe size is 0.14
(0.14 + 0.14) x 45.142
hLfitting =
2 x 9.81
hLfitting = 29.079 m
Putting the above calculated value of hLpipe & hLfittings in (i)
hL = hLpipe + hLfitting
hL = 0.751 + 29.079= 29.830 m

In fig. 7, Ws, Wb & Wi are the weight of straight pipe, 45 0
bend & inclined pipe resp.
As inclined pipe is 450 inclined then its force resolved into
two components i.e. vertical (W1) & horizontal (W2).
Considering section between H1 & H2 i.e. part (1)
H2=1803.12 kg(ix)
From (vi) & (ix)
H2 = H2+H2
H2=2255.6+1803.12
