Flow nomogramm  
 
 

 

 

for rough determination of flow velocity, pressure loss and conveying quantity serves the following flow nomogram. At an average flow velocity up to 20m of pipe length are added for each tee, reducer and 90 elbow, about 10m of pipe for each bend r=d and about 5m of pipe length for each bend r=1.5 x d.

 

 

 
pipe inside diameter d [mm]
conveyed quantity (Flow volume) Q [1/s]
Flow velocity v [m/s]
pressure loss per meter pipe length p/L [mbar/m]

  1. Werecommend for the calculation of the operating pressure in piping systems to multiply the in the table contained operating pressure with a system reduction
    coefficient fs=0.8 (this value contains installation-technical influences such as welding joint,flange or also bending loads.).
  2. These operating pressure have to be reduced by the corresponding reducing coefficients(see page 19-23)for every application.
