Abstract
The resistance of various screens in a tube is reduced to the drag of a single piece of wire by assuming that the average velocity in the screen itself rather than the free stream velocity is the significant factor. Almost all the available tests on screens or gauzes are brought into line with a single experimental function similar to the drag of a cylinder plotted against Reynolds number.Keywords
