The flow rate of the medium inside the pipeline is below the specified value

Thread Content

What happens if the flow velocity of the medium inside the pipeline is below the specified value? For example, if the specified flow velocity is 1.5–3 m/s but the actual flow velocity is below 0.5 m/s, will this affect the proper transportation of the medium?

There’s no impact, but the diameter of the pipe chosen in the design is a bit excessive~~ Hehe~~

In short, it’s no longer economical! It’s like using a 1-meter-thick water pipe in your home – that’s just being foolish and wasting money. . .

I’m not sure whether there are any solid particles that tend to settle inside

The quantity is very small, and the diameter of the pipe calculated is too small, making it difficult to arrange the piping

If it is a pure liquid, it has little impact; but in the case of a solid-liquid mixture, the flow rate decreases, and the solid particles accumulate, which can eventually cause blockages in the pipes over time.

If there are solid impurities in the liquid, what should the minimum flow rate be?

What is the recommended flow rate if there are solid particles in the liquid?

Remember: Appendix GB151 provides recommendations for the water flow velocity inside heat exchange tubes

1. The pipeline design is too large, unnecessarily increasing manufacturing costs. 2. The flow rate is low, which may lead to sedimentation and corrosion...
