such that velocity profile does not change downstream, is called the transition length
B. Transition length for laminar flow of Newtonian fluids in a pipe of diameter ‘d’ is equal to
0.05. D.NRe
C. Transition length for turbulent flow of Newtonian fluids in a smooth pipe of diameter ‘d’ is
equal to 50 D
D. All A., B. and C.
