Analytical solution of Temperature profile in a Turbulent flow in a circular pipe

I am trying to draw T vs r graph (i.e temperature profile for a circular pipe in a turbulent flow ) . Pipe length and radius is known too.

You have the temperature profile. Are you asking how to plot it? I.e. use excel or matlab or your favorite plotter?

Or if you mean by hand, It is a power law profile, it looks just like any other power law profile (x^p) from analytic geometry.

Thanks for the reply . I know how to plot the graph using matlab . What i wanted to know is in the profile equation T(r) - T_w/T_cl -T_w = power law , how do i find the centre line temperature and wall temperature so that i can plot the graph.
