pressure loss and friction loss in a pipe can be reduced by 1) using smooth pipes 2) Using straight pipes, because the more bends a pipe has the more energy it will lose. 3)pumping downhill where possible.

How do you calculate friction equals coefficient of friction X normal force when frictional force and coefficient force are variables not given?
Friction= (coefficient of friction)(normal reaction) If you don't have the friction or the coefficient of it I'm sure you must have been given something else. Could you add the exact question to the discussion ?
How do you calculate the friction in a pulley?
To find the velocity ratio of a pulley, you must first find the effort and load distances. then you divide the two and there you have you VR (velocity ratio).
What is a type of gas moved in pipelines?
Natural gas
How do I calculate the velocity of an object which hits a stationary object if I know the mass of both objects and the distance the stationary object was moved what else must I know to calculate?
You need to know the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of moving friction for both objects. The solution involves solving a differential equation so the math is non-trivial.
A horizontal force of 40 newtons will just start a 600 newton empty sled moving across packed snow what is the coefficients of static and kinetic friction?
static friction= normal contact force*coefficient of static friction 40 = (600*9.8) * CSF CSF=40/(600*9.8) (you can calculate that yourself, i cant be bothered) there isn't enough info to work out the coefficient of kinetic friction
Do pipelines with many bends lose pressure more quickly than straighter pipelines?
Yes, pipelines with many bends can lose pressure more quickly than straight pipelines due to increased friction and turbulence caused by the change in direction of the flow. This can result in energy losses and decrease the overall efficiency of the pipeline system.
Can you reduce pressure loss and friction loss on pipelines with electricity?
no you can not
Which mode of transportation reduces transhipment losses and delays?
Pipelines. :)
What are the different kinds of losses in machines?
stray losses,armature copper losses,iron losses(Hysteresis and eddy current losses),mechanical losses(friction and windage losses)
What is major minor losses in a flow through pipe?
Losses due to the local disturbances of the flow in the conduits such as changes incross section, projecting gaskets, elbows, valves and similar items are called minorlosses. In other words, the losses that occur in pipelines due to bends, elbows, joints, valves, etc. are sometimes called minor losses.In case of a very long pipe, these losses are usually insignificant incomparison to the fluid friction in the length considered. But In case of short pipes,these minor losses may actually be major losses such as in suction pipe of a pumpwith strainer and foot valves.
How do you calculate gate valve sizes for pipelines?
the gate value size should be greater than size of pipe .
Are the friction losses of the machine linear in induction motor electrical machines?
yes
Why is a machine is never 100 efficient?
Entropy. There are always losses - usually by friction.
What is fire hose friction loss?
Friction loss is when the water inside the hose rubs against the inner lining and losses velocity as it reaches it destination. So when water is pumped through a hose it losses speed b/c of it rubbing against the inside of the hose. AKA Friction Loss b/c rubbing is another word for friction.
How do you calculate win- lose?
To calculate win-lose, add the wins and the losses and divide the sum into the wins to calculate percentage of wins or divide into the losses to calculate the percentage of losses: W + L = Total; W ÷ Total = W%; L ÷ Total = L%: example: 12 W + 8 L = 20; 12W ÷ 20 = .60 or 60% wins; 8L ÷ 20 = .40 or 40% losses
What is the population of Transnet Pipelines?
The population of Transnet Pipelines is 500.
When was Transnet Pipelines created?
Transnet Pipelines was created in 1965.
