Zero-length loss coefficients were measured for several flat oval elbow and transition fittings over a range of Reynolds numbers from 20,000 to 600,000. Least-squares curve fitting was employed to fit a linear function to the loss coefficient data, with the intercept forced to zero. Local loss coefficient values for each fitting are presented.
