The determination of the head loss in irrigation projects is not used because it is a low practical method. For this, there are equations that estimate this variable, based on characteristics of the pipes material, diameter ...

The objective of this research is to present a study on a relationship between the local head loss in connection of emitters in pipes with different diameters used in drip irrigation, with the online geometry of the emitter ...

On this paper, the results of an experimental study oil the hydraulic friction loss for small-diameter polyethylene pipes are reported. The experiment was carried out using a range of Reynolds number between 6000 to 72000, ...

This work presents a continuous-time mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulation to find the best detailed schedule for single-source multi-product pipelines, minimizing the total operating costs. By knowing the ...

The Darcy-Weisbach equation is the most recommended equation for determining the pressure loss in pressurized pipes because of its wide applicability. However, one of the largest obstacles to implementing this equation is ...

Multiproduct pipelines transport fuels from refineries to distant distribution terminals in batches. Theenergy needed to move the fluids through the pipeline is mainly associated with elevation gradients andfriction head ...

The objective of this research is to present a study on a relationship between the local head loss in connection of emitters in pipes with different diameters used in drip irrigation, with the online geometry of the emitter ...

Artesian confined aquifers do not need pumping energy, and water from the aquifer flows naturally at the wellhead. This study proposes correcting the method for analyzing flowing well tests presented by Jacob and Lohman ...

The fast development of prototyping technologies allowed the optimization of engineering projects in several areas. On this paper was used methods to achieve an absolute value for the average superficial roughness parameter ...
