Pipe Size Calculator (Inspect)

The document is a water pipe size calculator that allows the user to input parameters like type of pipe material, C-value, flowrate, and maximum allowable friction loss to calculate the minimum required internal pipe diameter and select an available pipe size. It provides a list of common pipe materials and their C-values as well as available pipe sizes in both inches and millimeters that can be selected.

Water Pipe Size Calculator

Types of Pipe Select Cast Iron (CI)


C-Value of Pipe Auto 100
Flowrate usgpm 2150
Maximum Allowable Frictional Loss ft/100ft 4
Min. Required Pipe Internal Diameter inch 10.08

% tolerance to the imposed allowable friction loss* % 0


Selected pipe size** inch 12.0

Remarks
*Sometimes we want to retain the pipe size at one size smaller if 4 ft/100ft
is only exceeded by a little
0% means no tolerance - Upsize once it is exceeded
100% means to up one size no matter what
**Macro-enabled function, hold down 'CTRL' & 'SHIFT' & press 'ENTER' in the formula bar if prompted "N/A" error
