Frictional loss refers to the energy loss that occurs due to the friction between the fluid and the walls of the pipe as it flows through it. Now, let's consider the options: a. More than real fluids: This option is incorrect because real fluids have more Show more…

Fluid is flowing in a rough circular pipe in turbulent condition, and the friction factor varies with velocity and Reynolds number as f = m * V^0.6 / Re^0.8 (m = constant, V is velocity, and Re is Reynolds number). Due to the rough pipe, the frictional pressure drop is 50 kPa when the velocity of the fluid is 8 m/s. What will be the frictional pressure drop in kPa when the velocity of the fluid changes to 12 m/s? Select your answer: A) 100 B) 107.6 C) 100.5 D) 103.7

For turbulent flow of a fluid in a pipe, all of the following are true, except: (a) The average velocity will be nearly the same as at the pipe center. (b) Energy lost due to turbulence and friction varies with kinetic energy. (c) Pipe roughness affects the friction factor or coefficient. (d) Reynolds number will be higher than 2,000. (e) Flow of gases and high viscosity liquids is usually turbulent.
