- 1Determine required flow rate, select acceptable velocity, solve for diameter
- 2Apply the formula using your project measurements
- 3Add required safety factors or waste allowances per code
Worked Examples
Инпут
50 GPM flow, 6 fps max velocity
Резултат
D = √(4×0.111/(π×6)) = 0.154 ft = 1.85 inches → use 2 inch
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Not applying code-required safety factors or derating
- ✕Forgetting to account for waste and cut losses in material estimates
