$ d_2 $ $ \mathrm{mm} $
$ α $ $ \mathrm{°} $
$ f $

Calculation

Diameter ratio

$$β=\cfrac{d_2}{d_1}$$

Jet contraction ratio

$$λ=1+0.622\cdot\left(α/180\right)^{4/5}\cdot\left(1-0.215\cdotβ^2-0.785\cdot β^5\right)$$

Friction loss

$$K_{fr2}=\cfrac{f\cdot\left(1-β^4\right)}{8\cdot\sin{\left(α/2\right)}}$$

Local loss

$$K_{com2}=0.0696\cdot\sin{\left(α/2\right)}\cdot\left(1-β^5\right)\cdot λ^2+\left(λ-1\right)^2$$

Loss coefficient

$$ζ=K_{fr2}+K_{com2}$$

Discharge coefficient

$$μ=\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{ζ+1}}$$
