pipe diameter were the same throughout, the velocity, and consequently the velocity head, would be the same at both points, but the higher elevation at point 2 would still be responsible for a loss in pressure. The utility of the equation is evident, though it should be remembered that in it the effects of friction and turbulence are neglected, and that Fig. I --ideal conditions.

Fig. 1 shows diagrammatically the relation of the variou factors. The pressure at point 2 is lower than at point 1 because o the elevation of point 2 over point 1, and the velocity at point 2 is lowe than at point 1 because of the larger pipe diameter.at point 2.

Pressure Loss in Circular Pipes
The pressure loss in circular pipes is customarily expressed by the formula:

V = the velocity, in feet per second. 9 the acceleration due to gravity = 32.174 ft per (second) (second), d = the internal diameter of the pipe, in feet. / = a dimensionless friction coefficient.
The formula is generally known by the name of Darcy or Fanning, though it seems to have been originated by d'Aubisson de Voisins in 1834.
