View Model     Problem Statement

PRODUCT: AFT Fathom

TITLE: FthVerify49.fth

REFERENCE: William S. Janna, Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 1983, PWS Publishers, Page 153-154, Example 5.2

FLUID: Water

ASSUMPTIONS: Water assumed to be 20 deg. C

RESULTS:

Parameter	Janna	AFT Fathom
Pressure drop in pipe (kPa)	347.1	347.1

DISCUSSION:

The friction factor for this problem was defined explicitly based on the problem statement rather than using the iterative Colebrook-White equation.

Note this model uses fluid properties from the AFT Standard fluid library. The AFT Standard fluid library was updated in AFT Fathom 12, thus the AFT Fathom results will be slightly different for this verification case when compared to previous versions of AFT Fathom.
