Pressure losses

Pressure loss in the cleaning nozzle

In addition to the friction losses occurring within the nozzle, there are also local losses due to a separation of the flow and a formation of dead spaces at points of discontinuity. Local losses are, e.g.:

  • Entrance losses

  • Losses due to cross-sectional changes

  • Losses due to changes of direction

  • Losses due to branching

  • Exit losses
