Which regime results when the Reynolds number exceeds 4000 in a pipe?

💡 Explanation

When the Reynolds number exceeds 4000, inertial forces dominate, therefore fully developed turbulent flow exists because the inertial forces overcome viscous damping and cause chaotic eddies rather than either laminar or entrance effects.
