SERIES VS PARALLEL
When discussing this topic, we will only
consider Weymouth equation:
SERIES
Consider an L-mile long, DA-in. internal
diameter operating with total pressure drop
of p1-p2.
The pipeline is altered by replacing the first LB
miles with a DB-in. internal diameter line) and
value of pressure drop, p1-p2 is constant.
Using Weymouth equation, and since p1-p2 is
constant, the equation can be written as:
where K is a constant. The equivalent length
of a DA-in. line, L’A that would have the same
pressure drop as LB miles of DB – in. line is:
Therefore, the series line shown have a total
equivalent length of:
