ABSTRACT
A transition length is normally observed when
fluid flows through a conduit before laminar flow is
accomplished. This work examined a situation
whereby porous materials were filled into the
conduit and fluid was made to flow through. An
attempt was made to determine this transition
length for flow of water through riverbed sand of
varying porosities filled into a horizontal cylindrical
pipe of diameter 0.345 x m with piezomefric
water head, set at 0.06m. The transition length
was observed to be constant for the samples
considered and it occurred at 0.60m from the
point of entrance; nevertheless, values of
pressure at this point increases with increase in
porosity.
