Pipe Flow Friction Factor Calculations with Spreadsheets

By Harlan H. Bengtson

The Darcy-Weisbach equation and the Moody friction factor are used for a variety of pressure pipe flow calculations. Many of these types of calculations require a graphical and/or iterative solution. The needed iterative calculations can be carried out conveniently through the use of a spreadsheet. This book starts with discussion of the Darcy-Weisbach equation along with the parameters contained in it and the U.S. and S.I. units typically used in the equation. Several example calculations are included and spreadsheet screenshots are presented and discussed to illustrate the ways that spreadsheets can be used for Darcy-Weisbach/Friction Factor calculations.
