Pipe Design
Pipe Design
(OP)
I am currently working on re-designing a pipe run for a hydro test tank. Knowns: max working pressure; capacity of tank; pipe material.
I am trying to determine the size of pipe required. I reviewed MIL-T-16420 and have narrowed down my selection of pipe based on the classification of the pipe (70-30, No. 715, class 1650). My question is when it comes to selecting the pipe diameter, is it simply my choice which pipe size to use? I feel like O am missing something and I want to check with some outside sources to get some feedback. Thank you in advacne for your help.

RE: Pipe Design
From flow, you get the size by selecting a limiting velocity.
Pick a velocity and state it publicly here to start an argument.

RE: Pipe Design
it is not always a choice.
if you are going to enter a pump you are limited by velocity as our friend mentioned in his response.
