OnLine Calculations

I'm forwarding this message, which is from one of Piping Design Central's sponsors, LMNOEngineering. The links should be of use to some readers and I hope the formatting is not too unreadable.

> What calculation should I use? Have you ever visited our site
for a specialized calculation and didn't see it listed?

> Need the flowrate through a pinhole in a leaky pipe? Try our
Bernoulli calculator: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm</a>
>
> Need to know if a pump is required to carry water through your
pipe? Try our Darcy-Weisbach or Hazen-Williams calculations without pump curve. Solve for pump head. If a pump is required, pump head will be positive.

> Need to know if a blower is required to carry air through your
pipe? Try our Darcy-Weisbach calculation without pump curve: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/DarcyWeisbach.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/DarcyWeisbach.htm</a> . Solve for pump head like above. Note that you can't use Hazen-Williams for air since Hazen-Williams is only valid for water.

> Have a rectangular duct instead of a circular pipe? See our
newsletter Vol. 1(2) dated Feb. 17, 1999: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Newsletters/newsletters.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Newsletters/newsletters.htm</a>
>
> Need to know the flowrate through a pipe with a pump already
installed? Try Darcy-Weisbach with pump curve (any liquid or gas) or Hazen-Williams with pump curve (water only): <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Pipes/DWpump.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Pipes/DWpump.htm</a> or <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Pipes/HWpump.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Pipes/HWpump.htm</a>
>
> Need to know pressure change in a pipe due to an expansion or
contraction? Try our Bernoulli calculator: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm</a>
>
> Need a Moody friction factor? Try our Moody friction factor
calculation: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/moody.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/moody.htm</a>
>
> Need to determine velocity using a pitot tube? Try our
Bernoulli calculation: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm</a>
>
> Need to determine discharge over a dam but our rectangular weir
calculation gives "parameter out of range" messages? Try our Bernoulli calculation - not as accurate but no limits on the variables: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm</a>
>
> Need the flowrate through an orifice plate, but our orifice
calculation gives you a "parameter out of range" message? Try our Bernoulli calculator - not as accurate but no limits on the variables: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Flow/bernoulli.htm</a>
>
> Need to know pond storage volume required to attenuate a flood?
Try our Detention basin storage calculation: <a href="http://www.LMNOeng.com/Hydrology/storage.htm">http://www.LMNOeng.com/Hydrology/storage.htm</a>
>
> Need to analyze a network of pipes? By the time our next
newsletter is published, we expect to have a pipe network calculation on the website. It will be able to handle up to 12 pipes with 9 inflow (or outflow) nodes. You will have a choice of Darcy-Weisbach or Hazen-Williams for the friction losses.
