Abstract
AbstractAn extension to annular conduits of the well‐known method of calculating the resistance coefficient for turbulent flow in circular pipes is presented. The method is new in that it does not borrow any information from laminar flow theory; it gives, therefore, a location for the maximum velocity based only on turbulent flow characteristics. Expressions and a few essential graphs are given for the average as well as inner‐ and outer‐wall resistance coefficients for both hydraulically smooth and rough regimes and also for the transitional regime. A comparison with available experimental information for fully developed turbulent flow is presented.
