Q.  Pressure drop due to pipe fittings can be estimated by the equation, ΔP/ρ = 4f, (Le/D) (V2/2gc) where, Le = equivalent length of straight pipeline which will incur the same frictional loss as the fitting and D = diameter of the fitting. The value of (Le/D) (dimensionless) for 45° elbow and 180° close return bends would be respectively around______________________?

a. 5 and 10
b. 45 and 75
c. 180 and 300
d. 300 and 500
