    The document provides a summary of the key steps and equations involved in pipe sizing design, including: 1. Calculating pipe diameter using continuity, Bernoulli's, and Darcy-Weisbach equations based on flow rate, length, and pressure drop. 2. Determining internal working pressure from simulations or calculations. 3. Selecting pipe schedule using a rule of thumb expression involving internal pressure and material allowable stress. 4. Calculating required thickness and selecting a standard thickness, adjusting diameter as needed to meet velocity requirements.

    Calculate Pipe Diameter & Velocity
    1. Provide estimated flow rate
    2. Provide estimated pipe length
    3. Provide maximum allowable pressure drop (refer to EIEPD Design Criteria)
    4. Convert to head loss

    5. Specify pipe material

    Equations involve:

    ● Volumetric Flow Rate

    ● Reynold’s Number

    ● Colebrook Equation

    ● Darcy Weisbach
    Calculate Internal Working Pressure
    1. Can use simulation or calculation to determine internal hydrostatic pressure gauge
    2. If there is any significant changes in temperature etc., may need to consider

    Calculate Pipe Schedule


    Using rule of thumb expression:

    where,

    ● P = internal working pressure, psig


    ● S = allowable stress (psi) for material
    Calculate Thickness
    1. From the calculated diameter and pipe schedule, find the nearest NPS
    2. Calculate the required thickness, and compare with pipe standard
    3. If thickness from pipe standard less than required thickness, may need to change NPS
    and recalculate
    4. Reconfirm velocity to make sure it is within allowable velocity

    Design thickness: Safe nominal thickness:

    where, where,

    ● D = outside diameter (mm) ● A = sum of allowance (refer ASME B31.4)


    ● Pint = internal gauge pressure (bar) ● tn = safe nominal wall thickness
    ● S = allowable stress (Mpa) ● t = design wall thickness

    where,

    ● E = weld joint factor


    ● F = design factor, shall not be greater than 0.72
    ● Sy = minimum yield strength (MPa)
