Don't know why you want to calculate it. Normally its easier to do a flow test and measure it. Or even easier is just look them up on this table.

apf,
With moody chart you can find out flow resistance

Moody doesn't do butterfly valves, or any valves. Pretty much just straight pipe. Not even elbows.
