About:
Calculate the friction loss in a pipe, with uniform flow according to the Moody chart.
This function is applied to laminar and turbulent flow, i.e., to all the range of Reynolds number.
Module:

UniformPressurizedFlow
Function:
UPF_moody_f(q,e,t,s,d)
Definition of variables:
q, flow - m3/s;e, pipe roughness - m;t, temperature - ºC;s, salinity - g/kg;d, internal diameter - m.
Sample code:
from UniformPressurizedFlow import*
q = 0.01 #(m3/s)
e = 0.000003 #(m)
t = 15 #(oC)
s = 2.5 #(g/kg)
d = 0.75 #(m)
f = UPF_moody_f(q,e,t,s,d)
print("f:",f, "m/m")
Result:
f: 0.02783272130932784 m/m
