EXPERIMENT 1 – HEAD LOSSES IN PIPES Introduction: In this experiment‚ the aim is to find the losses of water flow in a pipe system.There are two types of losses. First the major losses which is caused by the the frictional effect of pipe. Second one is the minor losses which is caused by the turning points(corners) of pipes. Apparatus: • • • • • • 90° mitter bend 90° elbow bend 90° large radius bend Sudden enlargement in pipe diameter Sudden contraction in pipe diameter A pump to supply water
