Fluid Mechanics Lesson 08A: Pipe Flow Introduction

Fluid Mechanics Lesson Series - Lesson 08A: Pipe Flow Introduction In this 12-minute video, Professor Cimbala introduces the next major section of material - internal flow through pipes and ducts. He discusses laminar vs. turbulent pipe flow and defines hydraulic diameter, which enables us to utilize correlations created for round pipes even for pipes and ducts that are not round. This video incorporates material from Section 8-1 and 8-2 of the Fluid Mechanics textbook by Cengel and Cimbala.
