Head losses at manholes with a 90° bend / by J. Marsalek and B.J. Greck.: En13-5/87-139E-PDF

"Head and pressure changes were studied at manholes with a 90° bend. For pressurized flow, such changes depended only on junction geometry. Among junction parameters, the benching was found particularly important. Full benchings reaching to the pipe crown produced the lowest head losses, particularly when combined with an enlarged pipe diameter at the junction. Head changes in open-channel flow were significantly smaller than those in pressurized flow"--Abstract, page 2.
