3. Explain briefly what is meant by fully developed laminar flow. The velocity u at any
radius r in fully developed laminar flow through a straight horizontal pipe of internal
radius ro is given by
u= (1/4µ)(ro2-r2)dp/dx
dp/dx is the pressure gradient in the direction of flow and u is the dynamic viscosity.
Show that the pressure drop over a length L is given by the following formula.
Ap=32μLu/D²
The wall skin friction coefficient is defined as C = 21/(pum²).
Show that C= 16/Re where Re = pumD/μ and p is the density, um is the mean velocity
and to is the wall shear stress.
Water is pumped through a horizontal, smooth circular pipe at a bulk velocity of 0.4 m/s. The pipe has an internal diameter
of 250 mm and a total length of 1600 m. The pipe flow is fully-developed. The shear viscosity of the water is 1 mPa.s.
Calculate the power required to pump the water if the fluid flow is laminar. Provide your answer to two decimal places.
