(1)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \left[\rho(p) - j_m^2 \cdot c(p) \right] \frac{dp}{dl} = \rho^2(p) \, g \, \cos \theta(l) - \frac{ j_m^2 }{2 d} \cdot f(p)\end{array}$

(2)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle p(l=0) = p_0\end{array}$

and assume constant pipe inclination:

(3)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \theta(l) = \theta = \rm const\end{array}$

Let's define constant number:

(4)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle G = g \cdot \cos \theta = \rm const\end{array}$

and rewrite the equation (1) as:

(5)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \frac{\left[\rho(p) - j_m^2 \cdot c(p) \right] \, dp}{\rho^2(p) \, G - \frac{ j_m^2 }{2 d} \cdot f(p)} = dl\end{array}$

The integration of the left side of (5) leads to:

(6)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle L = \int_{\rho_0}^{\rho} \frac{1/c- j_m^2 / \rho}{G \, \rho^2 - F} \, d \rho =\int_{\rho_0}^{\rho} \frac{\rho \, dp}{G \, \rho^2 - F} -\frac{j_m^2}{2} \, \ln \frac{F/\rho^2 - G}{ F/\rho_0^2-G}\end{array}$

where

$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle F = \frac{ j_m^2 }{2 d} \cdot f(p)\end{array}$
