Pressure loss
If you know Flow/Velocity, Pipe Size and

Length, you can calculate Pressure Loss. If

no Run (Length) is entered, Pressure Loss

per foot is calculated. For this example we will

use the default Material, Steel. Calculate for 2”

Pipe with a Flow Rate of 4 gallons per minute

and then convert to different dimensional units.
