  2. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    The pipe's relative roughness ε / D, where ε is the pipe's effective roughness height and D the pipe (inside) diameter. f stands for the Darcy friction factor. Its value depends on the flow's Reynolds number Re and on the pipe's relative roughness ε / D.

  3. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    where is the density of the fluid, is the average velocity in the pipe, is the friction factor from the Moody chart, is the length of the pipe and is the pipe diameter. The chart plots Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f D {\displaystyle f_{D}} against Reynolds number Re for a variety of relative roughnesses, the ratio of the mean height of ...

  4. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    In laminar flow, friction loss arises from the transfer of momentum from the fluid in the center of the flow to the pipe wall via the viscosity of the fluid; no vortices are present in the flow. Note that the friction loss is insensitive to the pipe roughness height ε: the flow velocity in the neighborhood of the pipe wall is zero.

  5. Friction loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction_loss

    The following table gives Reynolds number Re, Darcy friction factor f D, flow rate Q, and velocity V such that hydraulic slope S = h f / L = 0.01, for a variety of nominal pipe (NPS) sizes. Volumetric Flow Q where Hydraulic Slope S is 0.01, for selected Nominal Pipe Sizes (NPS) in PVC [ 14 ] [ 15 ]

  6. Fanno flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanno_flow

    Assuming the Fanning friction factor is a constant along the duct wall, the differential equation can be solved easily. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] One must keep in mind, however, that the value of the Fanning friction factor can be difficult to determine for supersonic and especially hypersonic flow velocities.

  7. Frictional contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frictional_contact_mechanics

    This theory is exact for the situation of an infinite friction coefficient in which case the slip area vanishes, and is approximative for non-vanishing creepages. It does assume Coulomb's friction law, which more or less requires (scrupulously) clean surfaces. This theory is for massive bodies such as the railway wheel-rail contact.

  8. Fanning friction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanning_friction_factor

    When the pipes have certain roughness <, this factor must be taken in account when the Fanning friction factor is calculated. The relationship between pipe roughness and Fanning friction factor was developed by Haaland (1983) under flow conditions of 4 ⋅ 10 4 < R e < 10 7 {\displaystyle 4\centerdot 10^{4}<Re<10^{7}}

  9. Hazen–Williams equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazen–Williams_equation

    The Darcy-Weisbach equation was difficult to use because the friction factor was difficult to estimate. [7] In 1906, Hazen and Williams provided an empirical formula that was easy to use. The general form of the equation relates the mean velocity of water in a pipe with the geometric properties of the pipe and the slope of the energy line.
