This document calculates the head loss through a pipe carrying wastewater from bar screens to an inlet flow control chamber. It provides pipe dimensions, flow rate, and material properties to calculate the velocity, Reynolds number, and Darcy friction factor. The total head loss of 0.03m is due to 0.01m from the pipe and 0.02m from a butterfly valve. This head loss is subtracted from the channel invert elevation to determine the head at the flow control chamber.
