All parameters given for a building water service
Pressure Loss Calculation
Calculates water pipe pressure loss using the Hazen-Williams equation for straight-pipe friction and a total K value for fittings and valves. The template reports pipe velocity, friction loss, fitting loss, and total pressure loss in kPa.
