D ** the internal diameter of the pipe in feet. / -- a dimensionless friction coefficient which can be de termined from Fig. 19, Chapter 7 of the 1961 Guide And Data Book. The Reynolds number can be computed
from data in Table 6 of this chapter.
Solutions for the pipe friction should be plotted for tem peratures at the starting condition (probably 0 F) and at the operating condition (use either 120 or 160 F). Then on the wa-me graph, the operating curve of the pump should be plotted (see Reference 4 for such a graph). The intersection of tiie fluid friction curve and pump operating curve will give the operating point for the system. Table 8 can be used to allow for the viscosity effect on the pump.
The designer must decide on the tolerable viscosity limit. Generally it is between 300 and 500 SSU, although for com mercial or private systems (where Ar is 0.5 or 0) it may go to 750 SSU.
Efficiency loss is not important, but head and capacity losses are. Reduced flow means a longer period of time for the system to become operative from a cold start.
The viscosity limit is controlled by means of a low-limit thermostat. For example, if it is desired to hold the viscosity of the solution to less than 200 SSU (4(k3 X 10-* ft sq per sec), then for the oil shown in Table 6, the low-limit control would be set at about 10 F.
For grrmTl installations, a quick method of determining the fluid friction for a 1-in. EPS pipe circuit is given in Fig. 2.

is for flow in the turbulent zone. For flows where Reynolds number falls between 2000 and 3000, no reliable prediction for pressure loss can be made. It is generally safe to a-ygimg the flow to be increased to a Reynolds number of 3000 with the pressure loss estimated at that flow rate.
Ftg. 2 is based on a pipe size of 1 in. IPS. If another pipe size U used and the flow is laminar, the correction factor
from Table 8 can be used. For example, samme a viscosity of 300 SSU, a flow of 5 gpm, and a -in. IPS pipe. Fig. 2 shows that for 1-in. IPS, friction loss would be 15.50 ft/100 ft. Table 9 gives K = 2.62 for $-in. pipe; therefore, friction loss would be 15.5 X 2.62 = 40.6 ft/100 ft
If the flow is in the transition zone or is turbulent, than Fig- 5 of Chapter 8 can be used in conjunction with Fig. 3.

For example, assume a viscosity of 0.0001 sq ft/sec (56.5 SSU), a flow rate of 14 gpm and a 1^-in. IPS pipe Fig. 5, Chapter 8, shows a head loss for water to be 190 milinches per foot or 1.58 ft/100 ft Fig. 3 gives a correction factor K of 1.75 for a viscosity of 0.0001 sq ft/sec; hence, the pressure loss is 1.58 X 1.75 = 2.77 ft/100 ft
INSTALLATION
There are certain precautions that must be taken during installation. They concern internal corrosion, flammability, toxicity, cleaning, joints, and hookup. A comprehensive discussion of these precautions may be found in Reference 5.
Safety
Since ethylene glycol and petroleum distillates are slightly toxic, the system should be installed and maintained in dependently. ' There should be no permanent connection
