Storm Drain Pipe Sizing Formula and Calculator The following formulas can be used to quantify the size of pipe required to accommodate the peak discharge to a given yard or industrial drain system. Preview:Storm Land Drain Pipe Sizing Calculator 1) Determine contributing area to upstream end of d...
Pipe sizingturbulent flowexplicitThis paper develops an explicit formula for computing the diameter of pipes, which is applicable to all turbulent flows. The formula not only avoids iteration but still estimates pipe diameters over the entire range of turbulent flows with an error of less than 4%...

Pipe Sizing Using Resistance Coefficients, K A plant decides to add a nitrogen blanket (at 5 psig) to a storage tank holding up to 25,000 gal of a hydrocarbon mixture having kerosene-like properties (Sg = 0.81 and viscosity = 1.125 cP) and pumps this material into a process reactor opera...
The handbook of Hydraulic Resistance (I.E.IDELCHIK) provides a formula for calculation of equivalent K factors for orifices based on area ratios of the pipe and the orifice. The attached document lists the Equivalent K factors for sharp edged orifices in a straight tube based on area ratios (...

Pipes and Pipe Sizing Pipes and Pipe Sizing for steam distribution Pipe sizing is a crucial aspect of steam system design. This tutorial offers detailed advice on standards, schedules, materials and sizing for various saturated and superheated steam duties....
According to the sub-catchment runoff coefficient, the weighted average value of each sub-catchment is obtained by using the sub-catchment area as the weight, which is the comprehensive runoff coefficient, and the comprehensive runoff coefficient calculation formula is shown in Equation (2). 𝜓...
The approximate formula for heat loss from two pipes embedded in circular insulation is cited in the European Standard EN 15698-1:2009 [12] for calculation of the heat loss coefficient (linear thermal transmittance), λ [W/(m K)]. The preferred method by the standard is to refer to the ...
NOTE! - a pressure drop above 1 kg/cm2 (14-15 psi) is in general not relevant and the formula and calculators above may not be valid. For a more accurate calculation - or for a longer pipe lines with larger pressure drops - divide the line in parts and calculate the pressure drop ...
