    The group conducted an experiment to measure pressure differences in fluid flow through a straight pipe. They used a fluid flow apparatus and measured pressure at two volumetric velocities of 550 and 600 gal/min. They found that pressure difference is directly proportional to volumetric velocity and Reynolds number. Higher velocities resulted in a greater frictional pressure loss. The group recommends precision when adjusting valves and measuring the manometer to obtain accurate results.

    ABSTRACT

    Flow through a straight pipe by a real fluid has pressure differences due to the velocity

    profile of the fluid. The group made use of the fluid flow apparatus specifically the straight pipe,

    it is also noted that all other valves are closed in order to not interfere with the results in the

    experiment. The group was assigned the volumetric velocity of 550 gal/min and 600 gal/min. It

    was found out that the Pressure difference is directly proportional to the volumetric velocity and

    thus have greater fanning friction factor. The volumetric velocity also is directly proportional to

    the Reynolds number which means that the fanning friction factor is proportional to the Reynolds

    number. The group recommends, being precise when adjusting the valves and measuring the height

    in the manometer as it will affect the answer when computing for the various properties.
