3. Adiabatic flow of a perfect gas in a cylindrical pipe
This adiabatic flow, which does not respect the evolution of the cross-section Ω of an isentropic flow, is essentially irreversible. It is extremely common in practice, and is known as Fanno flow.
3.1 Fanno flow equations
The general equations, applied to this particular case, can be written as follows.
