parallel duct or pipe flows
parallel duct or pipe flows
(OP)
fvincent previously quoted a formula for the equivalent resistance of parallel pipe flows. Where can I find a reference that develops the equation that he gave? For three pipes it was:
Keq = k1*k2*k3 / ((k2*k3)^.5 + (k1*k3)^.5 + (k2*k3)^.5)^2
Keq = k1*k2*k3 / ((k2*k3)^.5 + (k1*k3)^.5 + (k2*k3)^.5)^2
