Özet:

 

Pressure drop in pipes can be calculated by using the Darcy-Weisbach formula. In order to use this formula, the Darcy friction factor should be known. The best approximation to the Darcy friction factor for turbulent flow is given by the Colebrook-White equation. This equation can only be solved by numerical root finding methods. There are several other approximate correlations to the Darcy friction factor with some relative error compared to the Colebrook-White equation. It was found that in some of these correlations, the percentage error is so small that they can be used directly in place of the Colebrook equation. In this study, a review of several friction factor correlations is performed. Relative error of these correlations is re-evaluated against the Reynolds number for a different value of relative pipe roughness. Also statistical analyses will be given for each correlation.
