Simultaneous Optimal Estimation of Roughness and Minor Loss Coefficients in a Pipeline

Simultaneous Optimal Estimation of Roughness and Minor Loss Coefficients in a Pipeline

This paper presents a proposal to estimate simultaneously, through nonlinear optimization, the roughness and head loss coefficients in a non-straight pipeline. With the proposed technique, the calculation of friction is optimized by minimizing the fitting error in the Colebrook–White equation for an...
