Inlet Pipe Calculations:
To determine the diameter of the inlet pipe we used the constraint that the maximum shear due to minor losses had to be less than Gav in the last section of the flocculator (Gav = 24/s). The minor losses from the inlet pipe will occur at the exit elbow, and the equation to calculate shear due to a pipe elbow is shown below. This equation is solved for D, the diameter of the pipe that would provide shear equal to Gav.
