Description

Equations for calculating the loss coefficient in combining flows in tee functions are obtained by an integral linear momentum balance. It is a practice, when solving this type of problem, to neglect the pressure difference in the upstream location as well as the wall-fluid interaction in the lateral branch of the junction. In this work it is demonstrated the influence of the above parameters on the loss coefficient based on experimental values and by apropriate algebraic manipulation of the loss coefficient values published by previous investigators.

Abstract (Portuguese)

As equacoes para o calculo dos coeficientes de perda de carga em escoamentos confluentes sao obtidos basicamente, a partir do balanco do fluxo da quantidad de movimento linear. Os trabalhos conhecidos desprezam a diferenca das pressoes estaticas a montante da confluencia bem como o valor da reacao parede-fluido no ramo lateral. O presente trabalho apresenta a influencia dos termos referentes a essas grandezas a partir de alguns dados experimentais, bem como atraves de processamento adequado de valores experimentais de coeficientes de perda de carga obtidos por outros autores.
