A standard method of calculating head loss in a pipe uses the Hazen-Williams Equation: 



H = 0.2083

[d 



4.8655

where: 



H = friction head in feet of fresh water per 100 ft of pipe 



d = inside diameter of pipe, inches 



Q = flow rate, gallons per minute 



C = constant describing pipe roughness based on d 50 from Figure 1 l-2c, p. 92 in 

 Turner (1984) 



From Figure 1 l-2c (Turner 1984), using d 50 =0.4 mm and slurry SG=1.15, C can be found equal 

 to 110. Using the Hazen - Williams Equation, H can be found as: 



H = 0.2083

Georgia Iron Works (GIW) in their Slurry Pipeline Design Manual (September 1982) 1 

 provides a better method of determining head loss in feet of slurry as opposed to feet of clear 

 water.
