    1.1 Average load on a straight section of pipe

    The charge of a fluid at a point on a flow line is defined ([BE 8 153], § 3.4) as the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energies of pressure and position of the fluid's unit weight. Thus, at a point A of a flow, the load C is defined by (figure 1 ): CA=vA22g+PAϖ+zA
