Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement = 0.6*(Velocity of Air at Section 1-Velocity of Air at Section 2)^2
ΔP_se = 0.6*(V₁-V₂)^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement due to friction is the decrease in the value of the pressure due to the influence of friction.
Velocity of Air at Section 1 - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Air at section 1 is defined as the rate of air movement measured in distance traveled relative to time elapsed at section 1.
Velocity of Air at Section 2 - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Air at section 2 is defined as the rate of air movement measured in distance traveled relative to time elapsed at section 2.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Velocity of Air at Section 1: 17 Meter per Second --> 17 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Velocity of Air at Section 2: 26 Meter per Second --> 26 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ΔP_se = 0.6*(V₁-V₂)^2 --> 0.6*(17-26)^2

Evaluating ... ...

ΔP_se = 48.6

What is Static Regain?

When the area of a duct changes, the velocity of air flowing through the duct changes. A little consideration will show that when the area increases, the velocity decreases with a rise in pressure, and the conversion of velocity head (or velocity pressure) into pressure head (or static pressure) takes place. The increase in static pressure as a result of the conversion from velocity pressure is termed as static regain.

How to Calculate Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement?

Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement calculator uses Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement = 0.6*(Velocity of Air at Section 1-Velocity of Air at Section 2)^2 to calculate the Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement, Pressure Loss due to Sudden Enlargement formula is defined as the energy loss that occurs when a fluid flowing through a pipe suddenly encounters a larger diameter, resulting in a conversion of kinetic energy into pressure energy, leading to a loss of pressure head.
