Friction loss for a 32 mm Megaflex Mining Hose 1

[geomathews]

Hey all, I am doing my vacation work at a Platinum concentrator and I am looking to find the friction loss (coefficient) on a 32 mm Megaflex mining hose or a close approximation to it. Any suggestions? (Could not find anything on the megaflex site ;/)

Awesome just found it before your post.

The flowrate on that chart is given as Lines/min, any suggestions to what units this refers to?

Pretty sure a typo: litres/min (1 litre/min = 0.264 USGPM)
