For the data in Problem 10.47, compute the resistance factor and the energy loss for a coil of the given tube that makes six complete revolutions. The mean bend radius is the same, 2.00 in.

In Problem

Compute the energy loss in a 90 bend in a steel tube used for a fluid power system. The tube has a ½-in OD and a wall thickness of 0.065 in. The mean bend radius is 2.00 in. The flow rate of hydraulic oil is 3.5 gal/min.
