I just talked with someone about that and he said the flow doesn't necessarily have to be laminar ! Because the fluid is redirected to a laminator block (where we make the flow laminar because of the honeycomb structure in the block). So I'm just trying to know if the flow will perfectly split...

Oh I didn't precise but I don't have the machine so I can't do any experiments ... Yes I already calculated it (170 000 so very turbulent)

I want the flow to be as laminar as possible and the fact that the flow isn't divided equally may have an impact. It is a ferromagnetic fluid that's used to separate different materials depending on their densities. The more the flow is laminar the best is the separation.

Thank you Anorlunda. My knowledge in fluid dynamics is very limited. Could you explain what you mean by the total flow resistance of the paths ? Is there any formulas available to calculate it? Thank you very much for you time !

Hi ! I need help on the following problem : I've got a liquid in a pipe that splits into 2 in a "T-junction" (see drawing below) : I want to know if the liquid will split equitably (50% to the left and 50% to the right) or not. Length after the elbow = 3m Inner Diameter 0,27 m Flow volume...
