EXAMPLE 6.1.6. HEAD LOSS USING DARCY WEISBACH FORMULA WITH REYNOLD'S NUMBER

A 1-km pipe of 25mm diameter has fluid with viscosity of  flowing. What is the head lost if a velocity of   is maintained?

With viscosity given, the Reynold's number can be determined. The Reynold's number, Re, is used to obtain the friction factor, f.

         

Considering laminar flow,

          


Thus,
