We’ll use the QP formulation to develop a fluid analysis system for fluids start with single phase and move to others

  1. Pumps Power = C x Q x P

  2. Compressor = C x (QP) x (PR^C2 - 1)

  3. Pipes = dP = C x fXL/D x V^2 / 2g

  4. Pipe Fittings / Valves = dP = C x V^2 (fXL/D +K) | K is a constant, for valves it can be interpolated between closed and opened

  5. Splitters & Joins: Handle fluid mixing

  6. Phase Separation (This one is gonna be hard)

  7. Heat Exchanger dP = f(V,T) - phase change issues

  8. Filtration dP = k x Vxc x (Afrontal/Asurface) “linear”
