Topics: - Wall bounded flows Abstract: A friction factor in a fully developed pipe flow is measured very accurately over wide range Reynolds number from 10^3 to 10^7 at the high Reynolds number facility in AIST,NMIJ. Also a velocity profile is measured by using a LDV up to 10^6. From the comparison between a velocity profile and the friction factor, we found that a log-law profile is well observed and Kármán constant is estimated to be 0.385. Based on the measurements, we present a new functional form of the friction factor which is consistent with mean velocity profile. |
