2. Check on whether the given flow is "completely turbulent flow" (Calculate f with the transition region equation and see if it differs from the one calculated above.)
f = {-2*log10[((e/D)/3.7)+(2.51/(Re*(f1/2))]}-2
Transistion Region Friction Factor, f: Repeat calc of f using new value of f: Repeat again if necessary: f= f= f= 0.0285 0.0281 0.0281
3. Calculate hL and DPf, for straight pipe flow, using the final value for f calculated in step 2
