Download Solution PDFFor a fully–developed flow of water in a pipe having a diameter 10 cm, velocity 0.2 m/s, and kinetic viscosity 10-5 m2/s, what is the value of the Darcy friction factor?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept:
Darcy friction factor is define as,
where, ρ = density of fluid, V = velocity of fluid, D = Diameter of pipe,
v = kinematic viscosity
If Re > 4000 then the flow become turbulent flow
If Re < 2000 then the flow become laminar flow
Calculation:
Given: D = 10 cm = 0.1 m, v = 0.2 m/s, v = 10-5 m2/s
Therefore, it is laminar flow
For plate,
If Re >
If Re <
