    Line Sizing Single Phase Fluid Flow: Chemical Engineering Calculations

    Uploaded by

    Rawlinson Tolentino
    This document describes the steps to size a pipe for single phase fluid flow. It provides the input data for pipe diameter, roughness, fluid flowrate, viscosity, and density. It then calculates the Reynolds number, determines if the flow is laminar or turbulent, selects the appropriate friction factor equation, calculates the friction factor, and finally calculates the pressure drop using the Darcy-Weisbach equation. The calculations are shown for both metric and imperial units.
