Abstract
Pipe flows exist when a closed conduit of any kind is flowing full. In pipe flow the cross-sectional area of the flow is the same as the cross-sectional area of the conduit. The water surface is not exposed to the atmosphere, and the pressure in the pipe may be equal to, greater than, or lower than atmospheric pressure. Pressure differences in a pipeline cause water to flow through the pipe.
