Fanning's coefficient of friction f = 16/Re.

Darcy's friction factor f = 64/Re.

It's the darcy's Coeff of friction.

For viscous-16/Re.
Turbulent-0.0791/Re.

f=16/Re is the expression for the entry length of a fully developed flow.

If there is friction head loss occur then option C is correct.

Ranjit said:   1 decade ago
Coefficient of friction (f) = 16/Re.

Friction factor = 64/Re.

Naidu said:   1 decade ago
For friction loss in laminar flow f=64/Re.

Please verify it.

Bharat said:   1 decade ago
You are right my friend.
The equation is 4f = 64/Re.

Ramakrishna said:   9 years ago
Friction factor = 4 * friction coefficient.

Ravi said:   1 decade ago
@Bharat.

Its Only f=64/Re.

Not 4f.

4f = 64/Re.
=>f=16/Re answer.
