pipe diameter enlargement calculator

enter the value and click "calculate", the calculation result will be displayed.
`K=2.6×sin(θ/2)×(1-β^2)^2 `    ( θ ≤ 45° )
`K=(1-β^2)^2 `    ( 45° < θ ≤ 180° )
θ = Angle of Approach      β = dminor / dmajor

enter a value:

approach angle:
(input angle less than 180°)
β:
Rev / Minute

pipe diameter enlargement calculator

the change in fluid velocity caused by the change in fitting diameter is obtained through fitting. pressure drop is also velocity dependent and varies in the direction of fit.

this formula is used to calculate the k value of tube amplification.

usage example
enter data:

tilt angle: 90

β:45

click "calculate" to output data

k value: 4.09658e+6

things to note
the progressive angle input angle is less than 180 degrees
