ulation procedure (Radon has been noted as a problem in Bechtelsville). The suction losses in the piping
will result from two factors: 1) friction between the air and the
walls of the pipe, calculated as loss per unit length of straight
pipe; and 2) turbulence created by flow obstructions in the
piping radon system , namely, fittings such as elbows, tees, and size
reducers. .
The losses in straight pipe due to wall friction can be calculated
based upon standard fluid flow considerations, depend.
ing upon the friction resistance ofthe pipe wall (Radon has been noted as a problem in Bechtelsville). The losses per
'100 ft of smooth-walled pipe having average wall friction
were presented in Figure 13 in Section 4.3.2 (Radon has been noted as a problem in Bechtelsville). The figure
presents the suction loss as a function of volumetric flow rate
and pipe diameter, i.e., as a function of gas velocity.
Suction losses associated with flow obstructions are handled
by expressing that loss in terms of the loss in an equivalent
