Laminar / Turbulent
Reynolds number
< 2000 : LAMINAR
> 4000 : TURBULENT
CRITICAL ZONE
Greater losses in Turbulent flow
Fluid power system designed to operate
in LAMINAR flow region

Friction Losses
Friction – Main cause of losses
Loss in Pressure head
Head Loss
•Losses in Pipes
•Losses in Fittings
Head loss in Pipes – Darcy-Weisbach’s Equation
Friction losses are a complex function of the
system geometry, the fluid properties and
the flow rate in the system
