Hello!
I would like to know how the head loss calculation located on the main line is done.
What is taken into account for the calculation?

The minor losses are calculated for all bends, tees, and 4-pipe connections using the 'equivalent length' method as outlined in our Tips forum post,
57. Allowance for Fitting Headlosses During Analysis (viewtopic.php?t=979).
