(Le/D) for a Tee (used as elbow, entering run) would be around _______________________?
Correct answer: B. 60
- A. 5
- B. 60
- C. 160
- D. 200
Explanation
A tee used to turn the flow from the run into the branch has a relatively large fitting resistance, commonly represented by an equivalent length of about 60 pipe diameters. The smaller value near 5 applies to much smoother fittings, not a tee.
