Hello mechanical engineers,
I need to connect a gate valve to an HDPE pipe, by flange.
The HDPE pipe is in Iron Pipe Size, 5 inch, DR 9. Specifically, the OD is 5.563 inches, and the ID is 4.25 inches (wall thickness is 0.618 inches).
Now I am looking at this Ductile Iron gate valve model...
Hi! I am new to the forum and a new civil engineer.
Question: what would be the best way to connect the three pipe sections?
I just designed a system where 3 different pipe sections are used:
[ol 1]
HDPE (IPS) 8 inch DR 9, O.D. 8.506
Carbon Steel 6 inch STD schedule (cement mortar coated)...
