Este trabalho simula numericamente a perda de carga e o coeficiente de atrito médio em canais compostos utilizando o pacote ANSYS® CFX. Foram avaliados 03 tipos de canais retangulares de altura H e largura W com um canal secundário ao longo de uma das paredes laterais. As dimensões do canal secundário são sua profundidade P e largura D. As simulações foram feitas para um escoamento laminar e incompressível para uma faixa de Reynolds de 200 a 1200, baseado no diâmetro-hidráulico, DH, na velocidade média do canal, Um, e na viscosidade cinemática do fluido, ν. Os resultados mostraram que o coeficiente médio de atrito é função de um fator de forma C e inversamente proporcional ao número de Reynolds. A utilização do diâmetro-hidráulico como escala de comprimento para o cálculo do fator médio de atrito levou a uma dispersão dos resultados que foram melhor aproximados utilizando raiz quadrada da área da seção transversal do canal, . Soluções transientes também foram avaliadas para observar instabilidades comuns nesse tipo de canal. Somente o canal de maior área de slot mostrou flutuações periódicas de velocidade, caso C4.Â
