Equivalent Length
• When a fluid flows through a section of pipe, pressure is lost
• When a fluid flows through a fitting or other piping object, pressure is also lost
– This loss is usually expressed in equivalent feet of pipe
![Page 4: 5 Software Instruction K-F Final(1)](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051401/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf78e3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Hydraulic Calculation Method
• The design software calculates the pressure lost in each pipe section due to:
– the actual length of pipe
– the equivalent length of any objects
– the change in elevation (gravity)

– Nitrogen cylinders are connected only to the Actuation Assembly
– Same rules apply
– Design interface is the same
