Download Pipe Size Optimization for Carbon and Stainless Steel Pipes

* * * * - 22 Votes



Screenshots
This simple spreadsheet will calculate the most economical pipe diameter for a system based on flowrate, fluid density, and fluid viscosity. The sheet is to be used for turbulent flow in carbon or stainless steel pipes. Both Excel 2007 and later and pre-2007 Excel version available. Requires Solver to be installed.

very usefull
I've looked everywhere on this site and can't find a location to download "Solver". This spreadsheet obviously doesn't work without it. At least list a source for the accompanying program when you list one that requires another.

Good comment. Solver ships with MS Excel. Here's a link to help with instructions on how to activate it:

Make sure solver is active and that you are allowing macros to run in Excel (check your security settings)

Sorry to insist !! It is not useful. How can you calculate optimum diameter forgetting pipe length !!! Optimum diameter is different when you project has 10 feet than 1000 feet. Sorry.
