Table 14-10 LOSS COEFFICIENTS, ELBOWS (Cont.) Use the velocity pressure (Vp) of the upstream section. Fitting loss (TP) = C x Vp D. Elbow, Rectangular, Mitered (15)
E. Elbow, Rectangular, Mitered with Converging or Diverging Flow (15)
F. Elbow, Rectangular, Smooth Radius without Vanes (15)
U.S. Units For Standard Air: Re = 8.56 DV

Table 14-10 LOSS COEFFICIENTS, ELBOWS (Cont.) Use the velocity pressure (Vp)of the upstream section. Fitting loss (TP) = C x Vp G. Elbow, Rectangular, Smooth Radius with Splitter Vanes (2)
NOTES FOR THIS FIGURE ONLY: A) See Page 5.14 to calculate splitter vane spacing. B) CR = Curve Ratio
C) Use correction factors in Note 1 on Page 14.19 for elbows other than 90°.
