Pipe flow refers to the movement of fluids through pipes, which can either be liquids or gases. It is a fundamental concept in fluid mechanics and is critical in various engineering applications, including water supply systems, chemical processing, HVAC systems, and oil and gas transportation. Key aspects of pipe flow include: 1. **Flow Types**: - **Laminar Flow**: Occurs at low velocities and is characterized by smooth, parallel layers of fluid.
