Which phenomenon causes increased pipe drag when exceeding Reynolds limit?

💡 Explanation

Turbulence increases drag in pipe flow because momentum transfer becomes chaotic and disorderly during the onset of turbulent flow regime, rather than orderly laminar flow; therefore drag increases because turbulent eddies dissipate energy which overcomes limited viscosity forces.
