When the pipe Reynold's number is 6000, the flow is generally___________________?
Correct answer: C. Turbulent
- A. Viscous
- B. Laminar
- C. Turbulent
- D. Transition
Explanation
For internal pipe flow, Reynolds numbers below about 2100 are laminar and those above roughly 4000 are turbulent. A value of 6000 therefore indicates turbulent flow.
