How to calculate the pressure drop in a rectangular pipe from volumetric flow rate?
I have been searching for the equation of calculating the pressure inside a rectangular pipe using volumetric flow rate but all I am finding is the Hagen–Poiseuille equation that calculates the pressure inside a cylindrical pipe: Flow rate=πr4(P−P0)/8ηl. Any idea?
The problem considered is that of finding a variable pressure gradient or forced motion of the pipe in a longitudinal direction which, at the time when it ceases to act, will have produced a prescribed distribution of velocity over the cross-section of the pipe. The subsequent changes in the distribution as the motion decays are also investigated a...
The tunnel crossing project of the Taiyuan Railway Station is constructed by using a pipe roof preconstruction method (PPM). The project uses 20 steel pipe jacks with a diameter of 2 m. The distance between the jacking pipes is 165–265 mm. In this study, the jacking force of densely arranged pipe jacks was studied by a large-scale similar model tes...
