A review of the explicit friction factor equations developed to replace the Colebrook equation is presented. Explicit friction factor equations are developed which yield a very high degree of precision compared to the Colebrook equation. A new explicit equation, which offers a reasonable compromise between complexity and accuracy, is presented and recommended for the calculation of all turbulent pipe flow friction factors for all roughness ratios and Reynold's numbers.
