Calculate Pipe Pressure





Formula

To calculate the Pipe Pressure (\(P_{pipe}\)):

\[ P_{pipe} = \frac{2 \cdot S \cdot T}{D} \]

What is Pipe Pressure?

Pipe Pressure is the pressure exerted within a pipe, calculated using the allowable stress, wall thickness, and outside diameter of the pipe. This measurement is crucial for ensuring the pipe can withstand the internal pressure without failing.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ P_{pipe} = \frac{2 \cdot 2000 \cdot 0.5}{10} = 200 \]

The Pipe Pressure is 200 PSI.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ P_{pipe} = \frac{2 \cdot 1500 \cdot 0.3}{8} = 112.5 \]

The Pipe Pressure is 112.5 PSI.
