Abstract This experiment of the friction loss along a smooth pipe shows that there are existence of laminar and transitional flows as stated in Graph 2.0 and Graph 2.1. It is proven that the higher velocity along the smooth bore pipe‚ the higher is the head loss of water. As shown in Table 3.0‚ when the Reynolds’ number increases‚ the value of pipe coefficient friction‚ f decreases along the decreasing stead laminar line. On top of that‚ there are energy loss from the water to the surface of the

FM 2 FLOW ALONG A VENTURI TUBE Summary The objectives of the experiment is to study the validity of the Bernoulli equation and to determine the coefficient of discharge‚ Cd‚ by calibrating the venturi tube as a flow meter. To investigate the validity of the Bernoulli equation‚ the static pressure is taken at each tapping and the total head is determined for the maximum difference setting. The velocity head is calculated using the Bernoulli equation. To calculate Cd‚ the volumetric flow rate
