false
the region between laminar and turbulent flow is called
transition
cylindrical length of pipe with reducing diameter which causes a restriction in the flow, followed by an increasing diameter to produce a gradual pressure recovery

turbulent flow
metric standard unit for volume flow rate measurement
meter cube/day
Vortex shedding frequency is directly proportional to the velocity of the fluid in the pipe and to volumetric flow rate
True
