Brian, In case it may help, Flow Simulation LTD. Has some links and info for using a calculator either online or as a download that can may help: http://www.flosim.com/products.html Calc98 is the one I refer to. Another site with potentially helpful calc items for free download is from Jordan Fire at:
http://www.geocities.com/tamer_cd/ There are numerous free items in the "downloads" area. Look at Frictial 1.2 as I think that may be the most helpful to your request. You can select either British or S.I. units, specific C factors, flow, dia, length of pipe, type, quan of fittings: http://www.geocities.com/tamer_cd/download_center.htm Happy calculating, Kurt Kingston Commercial Fire Protection Inc. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Harris Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2007 3:35 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Friction Loss What is the easiest way to figure friction loss when doing hydraulic calc's by hand? I know the formula that's in the book but I was hoping there might be a reference chart or something you could use instead. I have a "Construction Master 5" calculator for working with feet and inches but it's not set up to do compound formulas like the Hazen-Williams, sure would hate to have to buy another one just to do formulas....... _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
