Chapter 2, Problem 2.27P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Reynolds number for the given condition should be calculated and the flow should be explained.

Concept introduction:

Reynolds number (Re) is defined as,

Re=Duρ/μ

Where,

D = Pipe diameter, u = Fluid velocity, ρ = Fluid Density, μ = Fluid viscosity

When the value of Reynolds number is less than about 2100, the flow is laminar. Reynolds numbers above 2100, the flow is turbulent.
