Volume calculation of eccentric reducing pipes
Thread Content
I would like to ask everyone: as shown in the diagram, if a fluid flows through an eccentric reducer, what is the volume of the fluid inside the eccentric reducer? Thank you all!
It was created using 3D software, with options to calculate volume and surface area
Imagine it as a cone; the volume of the larger cone minus the volume of the smaller cone
I’d like to ask, what is the purpose of calculating this?
((Area of upper circle + Area of lower circle)) × Length / 2
The volume of an eccentric cone is the same as that of an eccentric cone – both are 1/3 of the volume of a cylinder. Therefore, it’s necessary to first convert it into a cone before performing the calculation.
Some horizontal pump housings have connections to the tower that resemble eccentric reducers
