Hi Guys,
From the acceleration head formulae, Ha = LvnCSg / 2.31Kg (ft)
is the "L", just the the total length of pipe from suction tank to pump suction flange?
Or
‘equivalent length of straight pipe factoring all the friction loses on elbows, Tee joints, valves & fittings etc’.
I don't get any clear definition on this regard.
Hope to hear from you.
