Issue Date: 1980
Abstract: An experimental investigation was carried out to generate the pressure drop data for flow of water and a aqueous solution of polyvenyl alcohol through two categories of spiral coils geometries. Five Archimedian spiral coils and six negative logarithmic spiral coil made of thick walled polythene tubing were employed in the study. The important geometrical parameter° used in the study were diameter of tube, %In, cax pitch and radius of outer aesymptotic circle. The experimental results were presented on Rulers number versus a dimensional group representing velocity andi the nature of pressure drop variation wee discussed. The results with water were in agreement to the findings of earlier workers while the dat4 with F.Y.A.-water solution revealed new information. Based on data analysis correlations for predicting pressure drop in flow through Archimedian and negative logarithmic spiral coils were developed.
