A new equation for heat and mass transfer in pipe flow. 1.

Author(s) : STEIN W. A.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The new equation proposed for laminar pipe-flow is derived from five limiting laws. The equation was tested with available data and correlations published in the previous literature. The more recent equations are, also, applicable at Prandtl numbers lower than O.6. The correction factor for the length of the pipe was correlated by an empirical relationship that combines two equations: one applicable for large, and the other for small Prandtl numbers. Several equations from the literature were tested for the friction factor in smooth pipes.
