1. The Darcy friction factor $f_D$ for turbulent flow through pipe is given by $\frac{1}{\sqrt{f_D}} + 0.86858 \ln \left[ \frac{E/D}{3.7} + \frac{2.51}{N_{Re}\sqrt{f_D}} \right]$ Determine the friction factor for $N_{Re} = 195000$ & $E/D = 0.0090$. Use Bisection method.

Step 1
The equation is: F(f_D) = 1/√(f_D) + 0.86858ln[(E/D)/(3.7) + (2.51)/(N_Re√(f_D))] We are given the values of N_Re = 195000 and E/D = 0.0090. Step 2: Set up the Bisection method The Bisection method is an iterative method used to find the root of a continuous Show more…

The Moody diagram gives the Darcy friction factor, $f,$ in terms of Reynolds number and relative roughness. The Fanning friction factor for pipe flow is defined as $$f_{F}=\frac{\tau_{w}}{\frac{1}{2} \rho \nabla^{2}}$$ where $\tau_{w}$ is the wall shear stress in the pipe. Show that the relation between the Darcy and Fanning friction factors for fully developed pipe flow is given by $f=4 f_{F}$
H. Blasius correlated data on turbulent friction factor in smooth pipes. His equation $f_{\text {smooth}}=0.3164 \mathrm{Re}^{-1 / 4}$ is reasonably accurate for Reynolds numbers between 4000 and $10^{5}$. Use this information for the following scenario. Water at $20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is to flow through a $3-\mathrm{cm}$ I.D. plastic pipe at the rate of $0.001 \mathrm{m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$. Find the inc ine angle of the pipe needed to make the static pressure constant along the pipe.
Show how the Darcy-Weisbach equation can be derived from the Hagen-Poiseuille equation through the introduction of the Reynolds number. What is the friction factor, f, equal to for flow at a laminar condition? What is it equal to in other regimes of flow?
