Friction is a major player, which itself involves flow velocity, pipe dimensions, and possibly internal pipe roughness. Height changes across the length of a pipe also contribute to pressure drops. Any and all fittings, coupling, et cetera [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=napkindiagrams.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10749515&amp;post=62&amp;subd=napkindiagrams&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
