A Zonal Similarity Analysis Of Friction Factors: Case Study 1: Pipe Flow Of Power Law Fluids
Published 15 Jul 2010 in physics.flu-dyn | (1007.2464v1)
Abstract: A zonal similarity analysis of friction factors in pipe flow of power law fluids is presented. It uses the critical Reynolds number and friction factor at transition as estimates of the normalised velocity and distance between the wall and log-law layers and successfully collapses both Newtonian and non-Newtonian data for laminar, transition and turbulent flows. Key words: zonal similarity analysis, friction factor, Reynolds number, transition
