Combined loss coefficient
Sum K coefficients at one common reference velocity; Δp=ΣKρv²/2.
Total fitting pressure loss (Pa)
Sum K coefficients at one common reference velocity; Δp=ΣKρv²/2.
Symbols and units
- a
- Fitting loss coefficients K

- c
- Reference velocity (m/s)
Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.
Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Sum K coefficients at one common reference velocity; Δp=ΣKρv²/2. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
