Content

• Piping System Design Procedure
• Pipe Thickness
• Pipe Sizing and System Pressure Drop

Design Procedure

• Study system specification, type and properties of Fluid.
• Determine material specification, pressure rating, temperature rating of equipment.
• Gather end user requirements : Location, pressure, temperature, flow rate.
• Consider the availability of source. Is there enough pressure and flow rate ?
• Study architectural drawings. Design the path of the pipeline. Determine the use of valves and other accessories.
• Perform detail design : pipe sizing.
• Pump Selection (if required)
• For power piping system, evaluate strength of pipes.
• Create drawings of the plan, schematic and detail installation.
• Adjust the drawing to combine with other systems.
• Evaluate construction cost.
