What is energy or head loss? • How do we quantify it? • How do we measure it? How can we determine it from an experiment? • How much is “energy loss” in pipe flow? • If I increase the volume flowrate twice, how much is the energy loss increased? • What is the required power input at the pump (heart, etc.)?
