Direction change Angles and bends in the pipe system increase flow resistance. For that
reason, it is necessary to limit the number of them to the amount re-
quired.
It is preferable to use bends, since angles have a higher flow resistance.
Angles should therefore only be used where they are necessary due to
structural constraints.
Corresponds to a straight pipe length of
Angle 1.5m
Bend 0.3m
If the pipe system includes angles or bends, the maximum overall length
of the pipe system will be reduced.
