most immediately becomes blurred and spreads across the entire pipe in a random fashion. These
three characteristics, denoted as laminar, transitional, and turbulent flow, respectively, are illustrated in Fig. 8.3b.
The curves shown in Fig. 8.4 represent the x component of the velocity as a function of
time at a point A in the flow. The random fluctuations of the turbulent flow 1with the associated
particle mixing2 are what disperse the dye throughout the pipe and cause the blurred appearance
illustrated in Fig. 8.3b. For laminar flow in a pipe there is only one component of velocity,

quite complex. However, once the fluid reaches the end of the entrance region, section 122 of Fig.
8.5, the flow is simpler to describe because the velocity is a function of only the distance from
the pipe centerline, r, and independent of x. This is true until the character of the pipe changes
in some way, such as a change in diameter, or the fluid flows through a bend, valve, or some
other component at section 132. The flow between 122 and 132 is termed fully developed flow. Beyond the interruption of the fully developed flow [at section 142], the flow gradually begins its
