Add some relations to model this.

Could use the formula on page 10 of the CUED Thermofluids databook, combined with the equation for friction factor on page 29 of the source above.

This would also be useful for pressure difference stress on the liner, might get on it this weekend

Added, just need to implement the result in the stress_analysis method. May need some tweaking when vertical channels are pulled onto master with ablative implementation, to adjust the total path length based on where regen starts.
