equivalente diámetro

Overview

Equivalent diameter is the diameter of a circular duct that gives the same pressure drop per unit length as a rectangular or non-circular duct for the same flow rate. For rectangular ducts, the hydraulic diameter $D_h = \frac{2ab}{a+b}$ is commonly used as an approximation.
