Question 2 How is the hydrodynamic entry length defined for flow in a pipe? Is the entry length longer in laminar or turbulent flow? Explain

Oil is to flow through a pipe at 80°C, and for experimental purposes, the oil flow must be hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed laminar flow. If the pipe diameter is set at 2.5 cm, what is the minimum pipe length needed to ensure the flow conditions are met and the required pumping power to overcome the pressure loss in the pipe?

Glycerin at 40°C with ?? = 1252 kg/m3 and ?? = 0.27 kg/m·s is flowing through a 6-cm-diameter horizontal smooth pipe with an average velocity of 3.5 m/s. Determine the pressure drop per 10 m of the pipe. What is minor loss in pipe flow? How is the minor loss coefficient KL defined?
