Homework Statement
Hi, Iv got to find the minimum diameter of a pipe if the pressure drops in a system is to be limited to 0.3bar. when delivered through a pipe of equivalent length 160m
I have to use the formula
Pressure Drop = 800lQ^2/Rd^5.31
I believe I have to transpose this to find the min diameter.
Homework Equations
compressor delivers 300 l s–1 of free air into a pipe at a pressure of 6 bar gauge.
Using the pressure drop formula: pressure drop = 800lQ2 Rd 5.31
calculate the minimum diameter of pipe if the pressure drop in a system is to be limited to 0.3 bar when is delivered through a pipe of equivalent length 160 m .
The Attempt at a Solution
d^5.31=800lQ^2/R
