Water Pipe Pressure Loss Calculator
Water pipe pressure loss depends on flow, actual pipe ID, pipe length, fittings, viscosity and roughness. The working calculator reports velocity, pressure drop and head loss.

Velocity
v = Q / A
Darcy-Weisbach loss
dp = (f * L / D + sumK) * rho * v^2 / 2
Head loss
head = dp / (rho * g)
