Appendix A. Formulas

This appendix contains the formulas you can use during pipeline design and operations.

A-1. Conversion Formulas.

A-2. Bernoulli Equation. This equation expresses the energy relationship for a liquid flowing through a pipe between two points.

A-3. Darcy-Weisbach Equation. Use this equation to calculate friction head loss in a pipeline:

A-4. Reynold's Number. Use this equation to determine the friction factor required in the Darcy-Weisbach Equation (see Figure C-9):

where--

Q = flow, in GPM
d = inside diameter of pipe, in inches.
K = kinematic viscosity, in centistokes (see
Figure C-8).
