EXAMPLE 6.2.1 FRICTION FACTOR USING THE MOODY DIAGRAM

For a fluid with Reynold's Number of  and a pipe with a relative roughness of 0.003, what is the friction factor?




In using the Moody diagram, The Reynold's Number will be plotted as the vertical lines in logarithmic scale. The relative roughness, on the other hand is the curve. Identify the intersection of these two parameters and that defines the friction factor, f.




Thus, friction factor, f = 0.03.
