Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
3Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
Dittus and Boelter (1930)
Fully developed turbulent in smooth pipe
Physical properties are evaluated at the Tb
Applicability Moderate temperature differences
between wall and the fluid
4Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
When Wide temperature differences are present in
the flow
Sieder and Tate (1936)
Fully developed turbulent in smooth pipe
All physical properties are evaluated at the
Tb Except which is evaluated at the Tw.
5Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
For the entrance region where the flow is not
fully developed
Nusselt (1931)
Entrance Regions
All physical properties are evaluated at the
Tb Except which is evaluated at the Tw.
6Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
Petukhov (1970)
Fully developed turbulent in smooth pipe
Applicability
All properties are evaluated at the film
temperature Tf , Except
7Empirical Relations for Pipe Flow
Hausen (1943)
Fully developed Laminar flow in tubes _at_ constant
wall temperature
Sieder and Tate (1936)
Fully developed Laminar flow in tubes (simpler
formula)
Applicability
8Note Channel flow
If the channel is not of circular cross section,
it is recommended that the Hydraulic Diameter,
DH, be used.

9Empirical Relations for Flow Across Cylinders and
Spheres
Knudsen and Katz (1958)
(Liquids and gases)
All properties are evaluated at the film
temperature Tf.
10Empirical Relations for Flow Across Cylinders and
Spheres
(Liquids)
Fand (1965)
Applicability
(Liquids and Gases)
Eckert and Drake (1972)
For gases properties _at_ film temperature. For
liquids properties _at_ free-stream temperature.
11Empirical Relations for Flow Across Cylinders and
Spheres
Churchill and Bernstein (1977)
Applicability
Applicability
This formula is even accurate for liquid metals!
Properties _at_ the film temperature
12Empirical Relations for Flow Across Cylinders and
Spheres
Whitaker (1972)
Properties _at_ the free-stream temperature.
Applicability
Nakai and Okazaki (1975)
Applicability
Properties _at_ the film temperature
