The concept of pipe friction in fluid mechanics plays a vital role in various industrial applications. In order to have a fluid flow through a singular cross-sectional pipe (with a constant area), there needs to be a pressure gradient. Also, the flow of water in the pipe is governed by five forces in nature. They are known as pressure force, viscous force, momentum equation, energy equation and friction force or head loss. The head loss (hf) determines the loss of “useful energy” in the cont...
