“…The flow-discharge problem Q can be easily solved because a closed-form solution exists [12] and, also, the unknown ∆p (head loss ∆h) can be solved relatively easily due to the suitable structure of the input parameters of the Colebrook equation. On the other hand, due to the unfavorable structure of the Colebrook equation, the problem of the unknown pipe diameter D, although very important, was not the main focus of researchers, but, nevertheless, many efforts have been made, such as Powell in 1950 [14], Rajaratnam in 1960 [15], Ranga Raju and Garde in 1966 [16], Lai and Lee in 1975 [17], Swamee and Jain in 1976 [12], Debler in 1977 [18], Swamee and Rathie in 2007 [19], Sakkas in 2014 [20], LaViolette in 2017 [21], Medina et al in 2017 [22], Yetilmezsoy et al in 2021 [23], Lamri and Easa in 2022 [24], Brkić and Praks in 2023 [25], etc. Many of them from the early years solve the problem through today's obsolete nomograms [14][15][16][17][18].…”
