Oil is to flow through a pipe at 80°C, and for experimental purposes, the oil flow must be hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed laminar flow. If the pipe diameter is set at 2.5 cm, what is the minimum pipe length needed to ensure the flow conditions are met and the required pumping power to overcome the pressure loss in the pipe?
