Abstract

I found the next formula on the coefficient of the frictional resistance of the gum hose (The common name 5/16″×2B) by my experiments.
Let h=λ⋅l/d⋅v2/2g
Then, I found
λ=0.092145 Re-0.12
However
h=head loss of the gum hose in some length (m)
l=Some length of the gum hose (m)
d=Inner diameter of the gum hose (8.28×10-3m)
v=Velocity in the gum hose (m/s)
λ=Coefficient of the frictional resistance of the gum hose.
Re=Reynolds' Number
When we think about the influence of high pressures. λp=λCp
hp=h×Cp×Rp
However
Cp=[1+0.000048p/(1+0.00085p)(1.002)p]
Rp=1-0.000223p/1+0.00085p
p=Given high pressure
