Abstract: 
Normally the values of losses in plastic pipe and fitting is small in most cases was neglected, the paper was estimate the coefficient for Polypropylene elbow losses by using experimental model consist of 18 elbows and it was K=1.77, also the paper describes the methodology can be estimate all values of minor losses.
