Laminar-Pipe-Flow
An oil of viscosity `0.15 (Ns)/m^2` and specific gravity 0.9 is flowing through a circular pipe of diameter 30 mm and of length 3 m at `1/10` th of critical velocity for which Reynolds number is 2450. Find:
- The velocity of flow through pipe,
- The head in metres of oil across pipe length required to maintain flow, and
- The power required to overcome viscous resistance to flow of oil.
