Define Head Loss?

Head loss is potential energy that is converted to kinetic energy. Head losses are due to the frictional resistance of the piping system (pipe, valves, fittings, entrance, and exit losses). Unlike velocity head, friction head cannot be ignored in system calculations. Values vary as the square of the flow rate.
