    TABLE 6
    ENTRANCE LOSS COEFFICIENTS

    Coefficient k e to apply to velocity head V for determination of head loss at entrance to a structure, such as a
    2g

    culvert or conduit, operating full or partly full with control at the outlet.

    Entrance head loss H e = k e V
    2g

     

    Type of Structure Design of Entrance Coefficient k e
    Pipe, Concrete
    Projecting from fill, socket end (groove end) 0.2
    Projecting from fill, sq. cut end 0.5
    Headwall or headwall and wingwall
    Socket end of pipe (groove-end) 0.2
    Square-edge 0.5
    Rounded (radius = 1/12D) 0.2
    Mitered to conform to fill slope 0.7
    *End-section conforming to fill slope 0.5
    Pipe, or Pipe-Arch, Corrugated Metal
    Projecting from fill (no headwall) 0.9
    Headwall or headwall and wingwalls Square-edge 0.5
    Mitered to conform to fill slope 0.7
    Conforming to fill slope 0.5
    Box, Reinforced Concrete
    Headwall parallel to embankment (no wingwalls)
    Square-edged on 3 edges 0.5
    Rounded on 3 edges to radius of 1/12
     Barrel dimension 0.2
    Wingwalls at 30º to 75º to barrel
    Square-edged at crown 0.4
    Crown edge rounded to radius of 1/12
     Barrel dimension 0.2
    Wingwalls at 10º to 25º to barrel
    Squared-edged at crown 0.5
    Wingwalls parallel (extension of sides)
    Squared-edged at crown 0.7

     

    *Note: "End-section conforming to fill slope," made of either metal or concrete, are the sections commonly available from manufacturers. From limited hydraulic tests they are equivalent in operation to a headwall in both inlet and outlet control. Some end sections, incorporating a closed taper in their design, have a superior hydraulic performance.
