FORMULAS FOR FLOW OF WATER IN WOOD-STAVE PIPE. Water is caused to flow and velocity created by the force of gravity. Thus the flow follows the general law of falHng bodies, and the velocity tends to become constantly accelerated. This tendency is just balanced by the influences retarding the flow. For a pipe carry- ing flowing water under pressure, the difference in elevation, Fig. 1.—Hydraulic elements for loss of head in siphon pipe. (fig. 1), between the surfaces of the water at the intake and outlet is the effective head through which the force of gravity acts. The effective or lost head is made up of several individual losses as fol- lows (fig. 1): Y2 Velocity head=l^v = o^* (1) This is the head absorbed in creating the mean velocity V, at which the water is conveyed through the pipe. This loss occurs at the intake. As a rule, httle or none of this velocity head is recovered at the outlet of the pipe. The conditions under which recovery may be expected are discussed on page 61.
