As shown in Video V8.10 and Fig. P8.28, the velocityprofile for laminar flow in a pipe

Chapter 8, Problem 8.28

(choose chapter or problem)

As shown in Video V8.10 and Fig. P8.28, the velocityprofile for laminar flow in a pipe is quite different fromthat for turbulent flow. With laminar flow the velocity profileis parabolic; with turbulent flow at Re = 10,000 the velocityprofile can be approximated by the power-law profile shown inthe figure. (a) For laminar flow, determine at what radial locationyou would place a Pitot tube if it is to measure the averagevelocity in the pipe. (b) Repeat part (a) for turbulent flow withRe = 10,000.
