Calculating Pressure Drop in Pipelines Using the Law of Energy Conservation

The application of the law of energy conservation to determine pressure drop in a gas pipeline. The discussion focuses on the three key components contributing to pressure loss: friction gradient, elevation gradient, and kinetic energy gradient. By breaking down the total pressure loss into these components, the video walks through a detailed example, calculating the pressure at the outlet of a 10,000-foot pipeline with specific parameters such as pipe diameter, fluid density, velocity, and friction factor. This content is essential for pipeline engineers and students who need to understand the practical application of energy conservation principles in calculating pressure drops across pipelines.
