Oil flows through the trans-alaska pipeline because oil is


Oil flows through the Trans-Alaska pipeline. Because oil is viscous, you might think that the flow is laminar.

(a) What is the minimum flowrate (m3/s) for which the flow would likely be laminar? Be sure to account for the cold Alaskan temperatures.

(b) Given this result, is the actual flow in the pipeline laminar or turbulent?
