Values of Cp/Cv to calculate pressure drop
Values of Cp/Cv to calculate pressure drop
(OP)
I'm using equations 3.20 in Crane to calculate the pressure drop of a compressible fluid at a give rate through pipes and fittings using values of the net expansion factor fiven in page A-22. However, most of my calculations involves propylene which has a somewhat lower Cp/Cv than the lowest value of page A-22, that is Cp/Cv = 1.3.
Is there a way to obtain similar data for other Cp/Cv values? If not do you think the diffenrence could be important?
Thank you!

The referenced article in Chemical Engineering magazine addresses the effect the actual Cp/Cv has.
