Abstract
Proc. Instn Ch. Engrs, Part 2,1985,79,June, 383-389 TECHNICAL NOTE 431 WATER ENGINEERING GROUP Systematic explicit solutions of the Prandtl and Colebrook-White equations for pipe flow J. J. J. CHEN* The Blasius equation was used to provide the initial value in the solution the Prandtl and of Colebrook-White formulae. The accuracy of the resulting equations was compared with the more accurate explicit friction factor-Reynolds number equations available in the literature. Explicit equations suitable foruse as a substitute for the implicit Colebrook-White formula were also recommended...Keywords
