The results of using the CONV-3D code to model incompressible fluid flows in round tubes in laminar, transient, and turbulent regimes are presented. The results of modeling with different Reynolds numbers are compared with the Poiseuille parabola and the Blasius formula. It is shown that the code satisfactorily models the flow of an incompressible fluid in laminar, transient, and turbulent regimes and can be used to analyze such flows in different applications.
