AbstractFive separate data sets on the mean velocity distributions in the Princeton University/ONR Superpipe are used to establish the best estimate for the value of von Kármán’s constant for the flow in a fully developed, hydraulically smooth pipe. The profiles were taken using Pitot tubes, conventional hot wires and nanoscale thermal anemometry probes. The value of the constant was found to vary significantly due to measurement uncertainties in the mean velocity, friction velocity and the wall distance, and the number of data points included in the analysis. The best estimate for the von Kármán constant in turbulent pipe flow is found to be $0.40 \pm 0.02$. A more precise estimate will require improved instrumentation.

In this study, an experimental investigation of the kinetic energy (Coriolis) correction factor in laminar, transitional and turbulent flow in a transparent smooth pipe with a Reynolds number up to 25000 is performed. The velocity profiles are obtained using a laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV). Based on the experimental results obtained for Re < 25000, generalized correlations for the kinetic energy correction factor as a function of the Reynolds number are presented. The results of the research are compared with experimental results reported by other authors. The predicted correlations for the kinetic energy correction factor can be a very useful resource for the hydraulic calculations of fluid through circular ducts.
