Bnclear or incomplete answer will result in partial or zero credit.
R=8.314kPa*dm3mol*K,M=29gmol(for air)
Pmin=101.3kPa.
[2 marks] Pressure drop p in horizontal circular pipe is given by
p=4f((L)D)V22
where is the liquid density, V is the average velocity of the fluid, and L and D are the
pipe length and diameter, respectively. The Fanning friction factor f is dimensionless.
Find the SI units ) of both sides of the equation.
SI units of p=
SI units of 4f(LD)V22=
