Spitzglass - low pressure system DP

[Justice100]

Hi there,

I am looking at using the Spitzglass method (as described in GPSA and others) as the system is at near atmospheric pressure. The one thing I am not sure about and none of the references I have discuss is whether the length is the pipe length or the equivalent length and if it is equivalent length?

You may have better luck posting in the Pipelines, Piping and Fluid mechanics engineering forum.

It's equivalent length.

See this basic introduction.
