Oxygen pipeline flow calculation
Thread Content
There is currently a main oxygen pipeline with a diameter of DN65 and a pressure rating of PN1.6MPa. From this main pipeline, a DN50 pipe is connected directly to supply oxygen for combustion; no equipment is connected at the end of the DN50 pipe, and the oxygen flows out directly from there. What is the flow rate of the DN50 pipe?
Are you asking about the maximum flow rate for a DN50 diameter? ? ? ?
I just want to ask: if it’s connected in this way, it’s essentially in a passive state. What will be the maximum flow rate, and could the flow speed be too high?
It’s not clear; the supervisor doesn’t have any other gas-using equipment
The operating pressure is 1.2 MPa
I recommend adding a thermal flow meter, of the flange type, which will meet your needs for measurement and control
If you answer like that, just stay silent! It can only be considered as the maximum oxygen flow rate for that path....
The calculated value is 31 m3/min
Could you explain the calculation method? Is the flow rate set at 15 m/s?
