    Hole amount and size calculation for perforated pipe (Sparger)

    Hey Chicopee yes we want the same airflow through each distribution pipe. We have in total 16 discharge pipes with the attached lengths. (all 4" diameter)

    Hole amount and size calculation for perforated pipe (Sparger)

    Hey everyone, I am trying to calculate how many holes I need for an equal air release in a perforated pipe scenario. I have a 5 HP blower with max. 2,500CFM airflow at 1.000in SP. I would like to have a hole size of 1/2" if possible. You can find the pipe geometry attached.(everything is...

    Help with airflow calculation within a pipe

    Hey LittleInch thanks for your great response. The air is filtered but the water might contain particles that settle in the air holes. Therefore a 10mm hole would be better. Can I not reduce the number of holes to increase their diameter? Do you know what the airflow per orifice would be at 20kpa?

    Help with airflow calculation within a pipe

    Hey Katmar, thanks a lot for your help. I tried to put together your information and what I found here http://www.cheresources.com/invision/blog/4/entry-353-perforated-pipe-distributor-sizing-calculations/ into an excel spreadsheet. (Please see attached) I come here and there to similar...

    Help with airflow calculation within a pipe

    Hey miningman thanks for your message. Maybe we can work towards the solution step by step. So the buoyancy force in the air collection box equals the pressure in the perforated air pipes. I was thinking of using a collection box with H = 1m and 25cm in diameter. The buoyancy force should be...

    Help with airflow calculation within a pipe

    Hello everyone! Iam looking for someone who can support me with a airflow calculation within a pipe for us. Attached is a sketch with more details. The airflow can be between 5 and 10scfm per 1ft pipe length. We have two pipes each with a length of 4m or 13.16ft. The air leaves the pipes at 1cm...
