The use of pipelines is an important alternative in the transport of fluids, being a common engineering problem to obtain the
decrease (loss) of pressure or transfer of heat in the fluid. To evaluate these phenomena, the number of Poiseuille (f ReDh) is especially
important. In this article, this number has been calculated for fully developed laminar flow in ducts of different cross sections using TRANSCAL
software, which has been developed by the Laboratory of Numerical Simulation in Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer - SINMEC-, of the
Federal University of Santa Catarina. In the implementation of the calculations made in the software, the parameters were introduced using the
analogy between the differential equation of amount of movement in the direction of flow and the differential equation of energy of the fluid,
in order to obtain the average fluid velocity in the pipeline.
