Pressure Loss If you know Flow/Velocity, Pipe Size and Length, you can calculate Pressure Loss. If no Run (Length) is entered, Pressure Loss per foot is calculated. For this example we will use the default Material, Steel. Calculate for 2” Pipe with a Flow Rate of 4 gallons per minute and then convert to different dimensional units.
