where
E
is the surface roughness. Equation 2-61 can be solved iteratively. If the Reynolds
number falls between 2,000 and
4,000,
the flow is said
to
be in the critical zone, and
it may be either laminar or turbulent.
Equations 2-60 and 2-61 are illustrated graphically in Figure 2-21. This chart is
called a Moody diagram, and it may be used to find the friction factor, given the
Reynolds number and the surface roughness.

Suppose
1,000
gal/min of light machine oil (see Table 2-10) flow through a 100-ft-
long straight steel pipe with a square cross-section, 2 in. on a side. At the inlet
