Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

Fluid flow friction factors serve as a cornerstone in understanding and predicting the resistance encountered by fluids moving through conduits. These dimensionless parameters are essential in both ...

For 15 years, scientists have been baffled by the mysterious way water flows through the tiny passages of carbon nanotubes — pipes with walls that can be just one atom thick. The streams have ...

• Excessive seal friction wastes energy, accelerates wear, and can lead to premature failure. • Too little friction makes a seal prone to leak. • Pressure-activated hydraulic seals minimize both ...
