Flow velocity issues in pipes of different sizes

2017-09-25View Original

Thread Content

Chlorosilane was fed into the storage tank under a pressure of 3 kilograms of nitrogen; previously, 1 1/2-inch pipes were used, with a flow rate of 12 m3/h. What will be the flow rate if 1-inch pipes are used now? How should this be calculated?

Depending on your nitrogen flow rate, the only difference of using a smaller pipe is an increased pressure loss.

The flow velocity is roughly the same, while the flow rate decreases as the area decreases

Why is the flow rate the same? Are there any relevant proofs or theorems?

3 kilograms of nitrogen is used in each case, with a constant flow rate. Press the chlorosilane from the tank truck into the storage tank. It’s just that the pipe sizes used in the two instances are different.

The flow rate remains constant, and the volume flow is calculated based on the cross-sectional area.

Hello, is there any relevant theorem regarding the constancy of this flow rate? Could you provide a simple calculation process?

Bernoulli’s equation: p1/2 + ρgh1 = p2/2 + ρgh2. If the pressure and height differences remain constant, and if the difference in resistance can be ignored, then the flow velocity will be the same

The pressure loss is high; overall, the time will take a bit longer, but nothing else is affected. It’s impossible for the tassels to remain unchanged if the pressure is constant. It will definitely change
