Use the Bend node to introduce additional pressure losses due to irreversible turbulent friction in a point associated with a bend in the pipe system.

Select a Bend — 90 degrees standard elbow (K = 0.9) (the default), 45 degrees standard elbow (K = 0.5), User-defined loss coefficient, or User-defined pressure drop. For User-defined loss coefficient enter a Loss coefficient Kf (dimensionless). For User-defined pressure drop enter a Pressure drop (SI unit: Pa).
