    PVC, CPVC and SS pipes - Maximum flow speed

    I will use 3 inch pipe made of SS, PVC or CPVC. The problem is that if I increase the speed of the flow too high, it can create a failure in the pipe. My question is: How fast I can go without risking the integrity of the pipe.

    316 SS corrosion - Brackish water

    thank you guys for your answers. See the following information We do not believe that there will be any corrosion issues with the 316L on brackish water. The chloride has to get well above 5000 ppm to be able to start to corrode stainless steel. This is why I am wondering about the chloride...

    Hi, I am designing a piping system for a small plant. We are going to move brackish water at 60 bar and Tmax: 40C. I am wondering if I can use 316SS for piping. My concern is the corrosion. I am looking for any link or research someone might know of that can guarantee 316SS for use in...
