Thermal System Design: Lecture 6

Lecture 6 of MEC 422 covered piping systems, including minor loss types, series piping systems, and flow through non-circular cross-sections. Examples were provided to demonstrate how to calculate pressure drops and flow rates through piping components and systems. The lecture also introduced optimization of piping systems, showing examples of how to determine the optimal or economic pipe diameter using direct and Lagrange multiplier methods while minimizing cost subject to constraints like maximum pressure drop.
