Can sommebody tell me how much heat there is generated from water passing through a steel pipe
exc. 200 m3/h in a dn 150 mm pipe lenght 20.000 meter
Friction heat from water
Re: Friction heat from water
Do you mean by friction? What is pipe material? And pipe roughness?

Re: Friction heat from water
I mean the friction betwenn pipe and the water pumped through the pipe, the pipes are steel with roughness 0,1, the temp. inlett is 85°c.Administrator wrote:Do you mean by friction? What is pipe material? And pipe roughness?
Re: Friction heat from water
When you calculate pressure drop in Pa - you can look at it like pressure energy changing to heat due to friction and it is quantity of energy in unit mass J/kg.
So for pressure drop of 1 Pa, with fluid density of 1 kg/m3, you have 1 J of energy per 1 kg of mass.
Dp/rho - J/kg - energy per mass unit
