 Types of Flow
• The physical nature of fluid flow can be categorized into three types, i.e.
laminar, transition and turbulent flow. Reynolds Number (Re) can be
used to characterize these flow.
VD VD
Re   (6.3)
 
where  = density
 = dynamic viscosity
 = kinematic viscosity ( = /)
V = mean velocity
D = pipe diameter

In general, flow in commercial pipes have been found to conform to the

following condition:
Laminar Flow: Re <2000
Transitional Flow : 2000 < Re <4000
Turbulent Flow : Re >4000
28
 Laminar Flow
 Viscous shears dominate in this type of flow and the
fluid appears to be moving in discreet layers. The
shear stress is governed by Newton’s law of viscosity

du

dy

 In general the shear stress is almost impossible to

measure. But for laminar flow it is possible to
calculate the theoretical value for a given velocity,
fluid and the appropriate geometrical shape.

 Pressure Loss During A Laminar Flow In A Pipe

- In reality, because fluids are viscous,

energy is lost by flowing fluids due to
friction which must be taken into account.
• - The effect of friction shows itself as a
pressure (or head) loss. In a pipe with a
real fluid flowing, the shear stress at the
wall retard the flow.
• - The shear stress will vary with velocity of
flow and hence with Re. Many experiments
have been done with various fluids
measuring the pressure loss at various A typical
Reynolds numbers.
velocity
• - Figure below shows a typical velocity distribution in
distribution in a pipe flow. It can be seen a pipe flow
the velocity increases from zero at the wall
to a maximum in the mainstream of the
flow.
30
 In laminar flow the paths of individual particles of fluid
do not cross, so the flow may be considered as a series
of concentric cylinders sliding over each other.
 Lets consider a cylinder of fluid with a length L, radius
r, flowing steadily in the center of pipe.

Taking the direction of measurement r (measured from the center of

pipe), rather than the use of y (measured from the pipe wall), the
above equation can be written as;

It can be shown that the mean velocity is half the maximum velocity,

 Turbulent Flow
 This is the most commonly occurring flow in engineering
practice in which fluid particles move erratically causing
instantaneous fluctuations in the velocity components.
 These fluctuations cause additional shear stresses. In this
type of flow both viscous and turbulent shear stresses exists.
 Thus, the shear stress in turbulent flow is a combination of
laminar and turbulent shear stresses, and can be written as:

dU
   lam   tur     
dy
where  = dynamic viscosity
 = eddy viscosity which is not a fluid property but depends upon
turbulence condition of flow.

Velocity Profile for Fully Developed
Pipe Flow

41
 The velocity at any point in the cross-section will be proportional
to the one-seventh power of the distance from the wall, which
can be expressed as:
Uy 1/ 7
y
  (6.10)
U CL  R 

where Uy is the velocity at a distance y from the wall, UCL is the

velocity at the centerline of pipe, and R is the radius of pipe. This
equation is known as the Prandtl one-seventh law.

Figure below shows the velocity profile for turbulent flow in a

pipe. The shape of the profile is said to be logarithmic.

Example 1
 Water at 10C is flowing at a rate of 0.03 m3/s through a pipe. The pipe
has 150-mm diameter, 500 m long, and the surface roughness is estimated
at 0.06 mm. Find the head loss and the pressure drop throughout the
length of the pipe.
Solution:
 From Table 1.3 (for water):  = 1000 kg/m3 and  =1.30x10-3 N.s/m2
V = Q/A and A=R2
A = (0.15/2)2 = 0.01767 m2
V = Q/A =0.03/.0.01767 =1.7 m/s
Re = (1000x1.7x0.15)/(1.30x10-3) = 1.96x105 > 2000  turbulent flow
To find , use Moody Diagram with Re and relative roughness (k/D).
k/D = 0.06x10-3/0.15 = 4x10-4
From Moody diagram,   0.018
The head loss may be computed using the Darcy-Weisbach equation.

L V2 500 x 1.7 2
hf    0.018 x  8.84m.
D 2g 0.15 x 2 x 9.81
The pressure drop along the pipe can be calculated using the relationship:
ΔP=ghf = 1000 x 9.81 x 8.84
ΔP = 8.67 x 104 Pa

75
Example 2
 Determine the energy loss that will occur as 0.06 m3/s water flows
from a 40-mm pipe diameter into a 100-mm pipe diameter through
a sudden expansion.

Example 3
 Calculate the head added by the pump when
the water system shown below carries a

the pump is 80%, calculate the power input
required by the pump to maintain the flow.

 Pipe Flow Analysis
• Pipeline system used in water distribution,
industrial application and in many engineering
systems may range from simple arrangement to
extremely complex one.
• Problems regarding pipelines are usually tackled
by the use of continuity and energy equations.
• The head loss due to friction is usually calculated
using the D-W equation while the minor losses are
computed using equations 6.16, 6.16(a) and
6.16(b) depending on the appropriate conditions.

80
 Pipes in Series

 When two or more pipes of

different diameters or
roughness are connected in
such a way that the fluid
follows a single flow path
throughout the system, the
system represents a series
pipeline.
 In a series pipeline the total
energy loss is the sum of the
individual minor losses and Pipelines in series
all pipe friction losses.

81
 Referring to Figure 6.11, the Bernoulli equation can be
written between points 1 and 2 as follows;

P1 V12 P2 V2 2
 z1    z2   H L12 (6.18)
g 2g g 2g

where P/g = pressure head

z = elevation head
V2/2g = velocity head
HL1-2 = total energy lost between point 1
and 2
Realizing that P1=P2=Patm, and V1=V2, then equation (6.14)
reduces to
z1-z2 = HL1-2 82
Or we can say that the different of reservoir
water level is equivalent to the total head losses
in the system.
The total head losses are a combination of the all
the friction losses and the sum of the individual
minor losses.

HL1-2 = hfa + hfb + hentrance + hvalve + hexpansion + hexit.

Since the same discharge passes through all the

pipes, the continuity equation can be written as;

Q1 = Q2 83
 Pipes in Parallel

• A combination of two
or more pipes
connected between
two points so that the
discharge divides at
the first junction and
rejoins at the next is
known as pipes in Figure 6.12 Pipelines in
parallel
parallel. Here the
head loss between the
two junctions is the
same for all pipes.

84
 Applying the continuity equation to the system;
Q1 = Qa + Qb = Q2 (6.19)

 The energy equation between point 1 and 2 can be written

as;
P1 V12 P2 V2 2
 z1    z2   HL
g 2g g 2g

 The head losses throughout the system are given by;

HL1-2=hLa = hLb (6.20)

 Equations (6.19) and (6.20) are the governing relationships

for parallel pipe line systems. The system automatically
adjusts the flow in each branch until the total system flow
satisfies these equations.
 Pipe Network
 A water distribution system consists of complex
interconnected pipes, service reservoirs and/or pumps,
which deliver water from the treatment plant to the
consumer.
 Water demand is highly variable, whereas supply is
normally constant. Thus, the distribution system must
include storage elements, and must be capable of
flexible operation.
 Pipe network analysis involves the determination of the
pipe flow rates and pressure heads at the outflows
points of the network. The flow rate and pressure
heads must satisfy the continuity and energy equations.

86
 Pipe Network
 The earliest systematic method of network analysis
(Hardy-Cross Method) is known as the head balance or
closed loop method. This method is applicable to
system in which pipes form closed loops. The outflows
from the system are generally assumed to occur at the
nodes junction.
 For a given pipe system with known outflows, the
Hardy-Cross method is an iterative procedure based on
initially iterated flows in the pipes. At each junction
these flows must satisfy the continuity criterion, i.e.
the algebraic sum of the flow rates in the pipe meeting
at a junction, together with any external flows is zero.

87
• Assigning clockwise flows and their associated
head losses are positive, the procedure is as
follows:
 Assume values of Q to satisfy Q = 0.
 Calculate HL from Q using HL = K1Q2 .
 If HL = 0, then the solution is correct.

88
 If HL  0, then apply a correction factor,
Q, to all Q and repeat from step (2).
 For practical purposes, the calculation is
usually terminated when HL < 0.01 m or Q
< 1 L/s.
 A reasonably efficient value of Q for rapid
convergence is given by;

Q  

0.020. A total discharge of 20 L/s enters the parallel pipe
through division at A and rejoins at B. Estimate the
discharge in each of the pipe.

pipes. All pipes are 1 km long and 300 mm in diameter, with

neglected.

Solution:
 Assume values of Q to satisfy continuity equations all at nodes.
 The head loss is calculated using; HL = K1Q2
 HL = hf + hLm

 EGL & HGL for Losses in a Pipe
• Entrances, bends, and other flow transitions
cause the EGL to drop an amount equal to
the head loss produced by the transition.
• EGL is steeper at entrance than it is
downstream of there where the slope is
equal the frictional head loss in the pipe.
• The HGL also drops sharply downstream of
an entrance
