You certainly know, as we all do, that moving a column of air down aHowdy,

at the pipe wall, which implies the reduction of the kinetic energy in
that direction, which implies lower normal velocity. ...
I think much more precision is needed here. Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity and has no direction.
Good Luck,
