What causes head loss in pipe flow?

The head, pressure, or energy (they are the same) lost by water flowing in a pipe or channel as a result of turbulence caused by the velocity of the flowing water and the roughness of the pipe, channel walls, or fittings. Water flowing in a pipe loses its head as a result of friction losses.
