Simply continuity law apply:
Q=AV
Q= flow rate
A=Area
V= Velocity
Normally velocity is around 1 m/s to 3 m/s.Pipe area calculted by it size.
We get the answer of flow rate.

The Reynolds number, Re = VD/υ, can be used to measure the laminarity of flow. The smaller the Reynolds number, the more laminar the flow. Therefore, to achieve better laminar flow, V and D (velocity of fluid and diameter of pipe) should be small and υ, the kinematic viscosity of the fluid, should be large. Therefore, since pipe diameter and viscosity is fixed in this circumstance, the slower the velocity of the flow, the more laminar the flow. Open the faucet to a small degree and the flow will be laminar. Turn the facet open fully will (for some faucets) cause turbulent flow depending on the maximum velocity of water allowed by the faucet.
Pipe flow refers to the movement of fluid (liquid or gas) through a confined space, typically within a pipe or duct. It is characterized by various parameters including flow rate, velocity, pressure, and viscosity of the fluid. The study of pipe flow is essential in engineering and fluid dynamics for designing efficient systems in industries like water supply, oil and gas, and HVAC. Flow can be classified as laminar or turbulent, depending on the fluid's velocity and viscosity, which influences the flow behavior and energy loss.

Water will flow more easily through a wide pipe than a narrow pipe. This is because a wider pipe offers less resistance to the flow, allowing a greater volume of water to pass through simultaneously. In contrast, a narrow pipe restricts the flow, creating higher pressure and turbulence, which can impede the movement of water. Therefore, the diameter of the pipe significantly affects the flow rate.
it would flow more easily through a narrow pipe
Increasing the radius of a pipe where laminar flow occurs typically leads to a decrease in the flow velocity needed to maintain laminar flow. This is because the flow rate is proportional to the radius to the power of four in laminar flow conditions. As a result, larger radii usually allow for higher flow rates while still maintaining laminar flow.
To determine if the flow is laminar or turbulent, we can calculate the Reynolds number (Re). For a 3-inch diameter GI pipe and a flow velocity of 2 meters per second, the Reynolds number is likely to be greater than 4000, indicating turbulent flow. In general, flow is considered laminar if Re is less than 2000 and turbulent if Re exceeds 4000. Given these conditions, the flow is turbulent.
The Reynolds number, Re = VD/υ, can be used to measure the laminarity of flow. The smaller the Reynolds number, the more laminar the flow.

A real liquid does not exhibit laminar flow at the inner wall of a pipe due to the presence of viscosity and turbulence caused by interactions with the pipe surface and other layers of fluid. As the liquid flows, friction between the fluid layers and the pipe wall can induce shear stress, leading to disturbances that disrupt the orderly flow patterns characteristic of laminar flow. Additionally, any imperfections or roughness on the pipe wall can further contribute to turbulence and transition to a more chaotic flow regime. Therefore, while laminar flow can occur in ideal conditions, real liquids often experience a mix of flow patterns influenced by these factors.
The velocity of a fluid particle at the center of a pipe in a fully developed flow is half of the maximum velocity in the pipe. This is known as the Hagen-Poiseuille flow profile for laminar flow.
For laminar flow? For a full pipe? for a 3/4-full pipe? For a 1/2-full pipe? It all makes quite a difference. Please repost your question with a little more information. It would also help to for us to know the coefficient of friction of the inside of the pipe.
Flow in a Venturi tube can be either laminar or turbulent, depending on the flow rate and Reynolds number. At low flow rates, the flow tends to be laminar, while at high flow rates, it can transition to turbulent flow.

Steady flow: Water flowing through a pipe at a constant rate with uniform velocity is an example of steady flow. Non-steady flow: Waves in the ocean where the water motion is constantly changing in both intensity and direction represent non-steady flow.
The friction factor in a pipe depends on the flow regime (laminar or turbulent) and the roughness of the pipe wall. It is typically quantified using dimensionless numbers like Reynolds number and relative roughness. In general, it represents the resistance to flow and is important for calculating pressure drop in pipe systems.
Yes, as long as the water coming out of the pipe has a greater pressure than the water that is covering the pipe. If it is the other way around, the water covering the pipe will actually flow into the pipe. Think about it. It just makes sense.
