Pipe sizing does not occur in isolation. The following interfaces are critical:

Where:

[ t = \fracP \cdot D2(SE + PY) + \textCA + \textmill tolerance ]

| Line Type | Allowable ΔP | |-----------|-------------| | Gas process lines | 0.5 – 1.0 bar per 100 m | | Liquid process lines | 0.5 – 1.0 bar per 100 m | | Pump suction lines | < 0.2 bar | | Control valve feed lines | 0.1 – 0.5 bar | | Flare headers | 0.1 – 0.2 bar per 100 m |

Depending on the fluid and the industry standard, a better PDF should cover three main calculation methods:

A standard PDF might show: hf = f (L/D) (v²/2g)

A comprehensive PDF will also include the rule-of-thumb equation for optimal liquid pipe diameter in inches: $D = \sqrt\textFlow/10$, where Flow is in gallons per minute.
