Popis: | Making use of a generalized turbulent velocity distribution for power law fluids, a Blasius type equation was derived which explicitly relates the friction factor to a generalized Reynolds number in fully developed pipe flow. Comparison of the equation with experimental data shows an agreement of approximately ± 8% A modification of the equation to account for geometry appears to allow its application to non-circular duct flow. |
