As discussed earlier, when liquid flows in a pipe, there will be some energy loss. This loss of energy may be classified as follows:

LOSS OF ENERGY IN PIPES

As discussed earlier, when liquid flows in a pipe, there will be some energy loss. This loss of energy may be classified as follows:

1. Major energy losses

This loss is due to friction.

2. Minor energy losses

These losses are due to:

(i) Losses in valves and pipe fittings,

(ii) Sudden enlargement/contraction of pipe,

(iii) Bend in pipe, and

(iv) An obstruction in pipe.
