Depth of Flow in Pipe Calculator

Calculate Depth of Flow in Pipe

Formula

The formula to calculate the depth of flow (DF) in a pipe is:

\[ DF = PD \]

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the pipe diameter (PD) is 2 feet. Using the formula:

\[ DF = 2 \]

So, the depth of flow (DF) is 2 feet for a full pipe flow.

Formula: \( Q = A \times v \)

Example: \( Q = 0.5 \times 2 \)

Calculate Pipe Diameter from Flow Rate

Formula: \( D = \sqrt{\frac{4Q}{\pi v}} \)

Example: \( D = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times 10}{\pi \times 2}} \)
