Assume the velocity profile for turbulent flow in a circular pipe to be approximated by a parabola from the axis to a point very close to the wall where the local velocity is u = 0.6 um , where um is the maximum velocity at the axis. The equation for this parabola is
u = um (1 – 0.4 (r/r0)2). Find the value of kinetic energy correction factor.
