Flow in Ducts

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

In chapter 1, the Reynolds experiments on flow in a circular pipe were described and it was shown that flow is either laminar or turbulent. The nature of the two kinds of flow was treated in more detail in chapter 6 and boundary layer effects were discussed. It is now necessary to consider how these basic concepts can be applied to flow in ducts.
