Relationship between velocity gradient and energy dissipation rate

Relationship between velocity gradient and energy loss based on a change in the pressure coefficient. Note that the pressure coefficient here is equivalent to a minor loss coefficient.

Energy dissipation estimate for a cell located just downstream from the 180 degree bend in a flocculator.
