How to choose and calculate the diameter of the unloading pipe
Thread Content
How is the diameter of the unloading pipe calculated? What parameters are needed, and what is the formula?
The net volume of the vehicle, the time required to unload it, and the method used for unloading, such as nitrogen or pumps
It depends on the size of the opening in your tank
The net volume is 65 m3, and a pump is used to complete the unloading process within 30–40 minutes
Don’t you already have a pipe diameter? What other pipe diameter do you need?
The key is to look at the rated flow rate of your pump. The flow rate of pumps imported with DN80 is generally around 40 cubic meters. You can take this as a reference
Determine whether to arrange the pipes around the pump or the pump around the pipes. Calculate the others again.
