22. Shell Balances
1. Identify all the forces that influence the flow
(pressure, gravity, momentum flux) and their
directions. Set the positive directions of your axes.
2. Create a shell with a differential thickness across the
direction of the flux that will represent the flow
system.
3. Identify the areas (cross-sectional and surface areas)
and volumes for which the flow occurs.
4. Formulate the shell balance equation and the
corresponding differential equation for the
momentum flux.

23. Shell Balances
5. Identify all boundary conditions (solid-liquid, liquid-
liquid, liquid-free surface, momentum flux values at
boundaries, symmetry for zero flux).
6. Integrate the DE for your momentum flux and
determine the values of the constants using the BCs.
7. Insert Newton’s law (momentum flux definition) to
get the differential equation for velocity.
8. Integrate the DE for velocity and determine values of
constants using the BCs.
9. Characterize the flow using this velocity profile.

24. Shell Balances
Important Assumptions*
1. The flow is always assumed to be at steady-
state.
2. Neglect entrance and exit effects. The flow is
always assumed to be fully-developed.
3. The fluid is always assumed to be
incompressible.
4. Consider the flow to be unidirectional.

40. Friction Factor for Turbulent
Flow
How to compute/find the value of the friction factor for
turbulent flow:
1. Use Moody diagrams.
- Friction factor vs. Reynolds number with a series of
parametric curves related to the relative roughness
2. Use correlations that involve the friction factor f.
- Blasius equation, Colebrook formula, Churchill
equation (Perry 8th Edition)

41. Moody Diagrams
Important notes:
1. Both fF and NRe are plotted in logarithmic scales.
Some Moody diagrams show fD (Darcy friction
factor). Make the necessary conversions.
2. No curves are shown for the transition region.
3. Lowest possible friction factor for a given NRe in
turbulent flow is shown by the smooth pipe line.
