    This document provides the design calculations for a cold pipe line used to transport light products over a distance of 160 km. Some key points: 1. The pipe diameter is calculated to be 12 inches based on the flow rate of 250 m3/hr. 2. The flow velocity is calculated to be 0.963 m/sec, ensuring turbulent flow for minimal pressure drop. 3. The Reynolds number is calculated to be 25680, confirming turbulent flow. 4. The total head pressure is calculated to be 940 m, equivalent to 1216 psi. 5. To withstand this pressure, the line would need to be divided into 3 sections, with pumps placed every 313 m to maintain the

    Cold pipe Line: used to transport light products .

    1- The design: e.g. , Thickness , Diameter .. etc.


    EX:
    Design a line using the following criteria:
    -

    =
    =

    = .

    Solution

    Some notes
    -

    = if just one of both mentioned


    = =

    1- Calculate the Diameters ( , , )


    -

    () = . . ( ) . . (. )
    () = . . ( ) . . (. )
    Where S is the specific gravity
    = 2.63 10.33
    From tables
    = 12
    = 11.93
    = 12.75
    = 0.406

    2- Calculate the velocity to get Reynold num and specify the type of the flow
    -

    ( ) =

    () =

    = 0.963 3.16

    NOTE: to have a suitable flow (turbulent) the velocity should be between

    < <
    < <
    Turbulent flow is required to minimize through the line

    3- Calculate Reynold

    ( ) () ()
    (.)

    > 4000 the flow is turbulent


    < 2000 the flow is laminar
    2000 < < 4000 the flow is transition.

    = 25680 the flow is turbulent


    4- From moddy chart using and relative roughness (e) we get (F) to calculate
    the total head pressure.

    - =

    ()

    = .
    = 0.0275

    5- Calculate the total head pressure.


    -

    (. ) = + + +

    - (. ) =
    -

    () ()
    ( ) ()

    = .

    - =
    -

    = 685 .
    = 103 .
    = 100 .
    = 940 .

    ( ) =

    = 82.72 . 2

    () = . (. )
    = 1216

    6- Calculate the horse power produced by the pressure to check if the thickness
    would resist the pressure.

    - =
    - =

    ( )( ) ()

    ( )( ) ()

    Where = . .
    = 1094.17
    = 1200 ()

    NOTE:
    -

    = .
    = . =

    7- Calculate by substituting by in the next equation

    - =

    () ()

    = 21 103 (young modulus)

    = 0.75
    = 0.125

    (melding efficiency)
    (corrosion allowance)

    - ( ) = ( )

    = 742

    - ( ) = . ( )
    = 0.9 742 = 668

    NOTE: in that case the line cannot resist the pressure applied so we will divide the
    line into parts then use pumps to support the required pressure .
    8- Calculate the number of sections the line will be divided into.

    - . =

    ( )

    = 2.7 3
    9- Calculate the distance at which the pumps will be placed

    - = .

    = 940
