8.8.1 Nikuradse’s Experiment Nikuradse made a great contribution to the theory of pipe flow by differentiating between rough and smooth pipes. A rough pipe is one where the mean height of roughness is greater than the thickness of the laminar sub-layer. Nikuradse artificially roughened pipe by coating them with sand. He defined a relative roughness value k s/d (mean height of roughness over pipe diameter) and produced graphs of λagainst Re for a range of relative roughness 1/30 to 1/1014.

Colebrook and White proposed the following general equation after studying flow in real pipes:
1 f
= −2 lg(

2.51 Re f
)
The values of friction factor obtained from the equation are plotted on a Moody diagram, which shows a family of curves for f plotted against the relative roughness and Reynolds number. The Moody chart is a graphical method to find the friction factor in pipes.
A good approximate equation for the turbulent region of the Moody chart chart is is given by Haaland’s Haaland’s equation: equation:

3 types of pipe flow problems: 1. Head loss (find h L given D, Q or V ) 2. Discharge (find Q given D and h L) 3. Sizing problem (Find D given Q and h L)
Example ( Laminar flow):
Water, 20oC flows through a 0.6 cm tube, 30 m long, at a flow rate of 0.34 liters/min. If the pipe discharges to the atmosphere, determine the supply pressure if the tube is inclined 10o above the horizontal in the flow direction.

Since flow is turbulent, use Haaland’s equation to determine friction factor (check your work using the Moody chart).
Z2 – Z1 + hf = - 500 sin 10 + 116.6 = - 86.8 + 116.6 = 29.8 m
Solution Summary To solve basic pipe flow frictional head loss problem, use the following procedure: 1. Use known flow rate to determine Reynolds number. 2. Identify whether flow is laminar or turbulent. 3. Use correct expression to determine friction factor (with ks/d if necessary). 4. Use definition of hf to determine friction head loss. 5. Use general energy equation to determine total pressure drop.
8.10 Minor Losses in Turbulent Flow
Transitions in pipe systems, such as bends, valves, changes in diameter, entrances and exits, cause head losses in the system. Head losses at transition points are called minor losses. A minor loss is usually a function of the velocity head as follows: 2
h L ( Minor )
=
V k 2g
Where K is minor loss coefficient
Sources of minor losses
• Additional pressure (energy) losses due to: – Fittings, bends, orifice plates, and valves • Losses due to physics – Vena contracta – Abrupt changes in flow area • Losses due to piping networks for fluid distribution

Example In a sudden expansion pipe shown in figure, velocity is v1 and v2 respectively. A middle diameter pipe is connected between the two pipes to form a two-sudden-expansion pipe. The interaction of minor resistances is negligible. That is, superposition method can be applied here. Determine: (1) the velocity of the middle pipe when the total minor head loss of the pipe is the least. (2) the total minor head loss, and the comparison with the one sudden expansion pipe.
Solution: (1) The minor head loss of the two-sudden-expansion pipe.
Assume the velocity of middle pipe is v, and make the total minor head loss be the least, so
(2)The total minor head loss is the minor head loss of the one sudden expansion pipe is the total minor head loss of the two-sudden-expansion pipe is half of the minor head loss of the one sudden expansion pipe.
8.11 Branching Pipes Branching pipe systems, such as the one shown by Figure 8.27, can be solved using the following: 1. Q1 = Q2 + Q3. 2 The elevation of P is common to all pipes.

8.12 Pipes in Series Pipes in series, as shown by Figure 8.29, can be solved as follows: Q = Q1 = Q2 = Q3 h L = h L1 + h L2 + h L3
Fig. Pipes in series
The pipe elements of the pipes in series have: A. the same head loss; B. the same total head loss; C. the same hydraulic slope; D. the same discharge through them
Example Consider the two reservoirs shown in figure, connected by a single pipe that changes diameter over its length. The surfaces of the two reservoirs have a difference in level of 9m. The pipe has a diameter of 200mm for the first 15m (from A to C) then a diameter of 250mm for the remaining 45m (from C to B).
For the entrance use k L = 0.5 and the exit k L = 1.0. The join at C is sudden. For both pipes use λ = 0.04.
Total head loss for the system H = height difference of reservoirs
and solve for Q, to give Q = 0.158 m3/s
8.13 Pipes in Parallel Parallel pipes, as shown by Figure 8.30, can be solved as follows: Q = Q1 + Q2 + Q3 h L = h L1 = h L2 = h L3

Question From the figure, we can see that the relationship among the head losses from A to B in the pipes in parallel 1, 2, 3 is:
A. hfAB=hfl+hf2+hf3; B. hfAB
hfl+hf2;
C. hfAB

Example
Two pipes connect two reservoirs (A and B) which have a height difference of 10m. Pipe 1 has diameter 50mm and length 100m. Pipe 2 has diameter 100mm and length 100m. Both have entry loss k L = 0.5 and exit loss k L=1.0 and Darcy f of 0.008.
Calculate: a) rate of flow for each pipe b) the diameter D of a pipe 100m long that could replace the two pipes and provide the same flow.
