Friction Losses in Pipe Flow Dynamics by Taha is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Here are the steps to solve this problem: 1) Given: Mass flow rate = 50 kg/s Density = 0.983 kg/m3 Viscosity = 8.35 cP = 8.35x10-3 Pa-s 2) Calculate average velocity: V = Mass flow rate / (Density x Cross sectional area) = 50 kg/s / (0.983 kg/m3 x π x (0.1 m)2) = 1.605 m/s 3) Calculate Reynolds number: Re = Density x Velocity x Hydraulic diameter / Viscosity = 0.983 kg/m3 x 1.605 m
