Pipe Sizing for Single Phase Incompressible Flow

Important Notices:
 
The pipe sizing procedure presented here applies to Newtonian fluids which are incompressible and single phase in isothermal and steady-state flow situations. The friction factor is calculated rigorously from the original Colebrook equation. Piping pressure drop and rating are treated elsewhere.
A more comprehensive and powerful version of this procedure is available online through Process Associate's clients gateway (password required). WWW-based and Stand-alone versions of the full program for Windows 3.1x/95/NT and Unix operating systems are available through their coordination office. The full version of this procedure is part of their Process Designer® line of intelligent software.
For your convenience, The input form below has several multiple choice fields {using radio buttons} with one field already selected as default. Please make sure that you always mark the proper button corresponding to your input if it is different from the default.

Notes:

  1. A Process Associates proprietary correlation reflecting typical "old" piping roughness is used. The correlation is derived from refinery data for steel piping in "clean" gas and liquid services.
