Air flows through a pipe of 20 cm diameter. A laminar flow element is installed, with the hydraulic diameter of the flow elements equal to 1 mm. The cross-sectional area of the laminar flow element is 90% of that of the main pipe due to the finite thickness of the flow element walls. If the measured pressure drop in the laminar flow element is 2.1 kPa over 15 cm of length, what is the flow rate of air in the pipe?
