Summary

A plot of resistance factor fD with the smooth pipe dependency factored out, versus R*, the friction Reynolds number. The smooth pipe data correspond to R* = 0, so are out of frame. The rough pipe data fall on a single trajectory when plotted in this way. For a given roughness ratio, e/D, and for R* large, the Darcy friction factor fD approaches a constant, independent of Re, the Reynolds number. Phenomenological functions attempting to fit these data, including the Colebrook–White relation are shown.
