Maximum allowable water velocity is generally kept as 3m/sec. But we have seen higher velocities also work.

How do you find out water velocity in pipe?
Hello, Velocity in a pipe is the flow divided by the area. If the pipe is full, the area is simply pi*r². Here is a useful calulator for full pipes: http://www.tasonline.co.za/toolbox/pipe/velocity.htm
Will carbon steel pipe touching copper pipe cause electrolysis in plumbing situations?
will carbon steel pipe touching copper pipe cause electrolysis in plumbing situations using water.
How do you know if you have copper or steel drinking water pipes?
Galvanized pipe will be silver/gray color. Copper will be copper. Use a magnet, it'll stick to galvanized pipe but not to copper. Drinking water lines should not be black steel pipe.
Can you calculate water velocity in pipe if just know head pipe diameter and pipe length?
Yes, it is actually one of the questions on a master plumbers exam
What is the volume of water in a five inch pipe?
Depends on the internal diameter, and the flow velocity. Velocity of water = Delta V Internal Radius= R RxRxV= Volume
How do you find the velocity of water if you know only the pressure and the size of the pipe?
It's lacking the temperature of water to calculate its velocity having the pressure and the diameter of the pipe. The temperature of water also counts on this equation. The equation is valid for fresh water, if the density of the water is higher compared to the fresh water, the result will vary, too. It is lacking also the inner condition of the pipe. Smooth or rough. The pipe must be placed horizontally, 0º degree of inclination. The pipe must be fully straight, too.
Is it possible to have a steel pipe inside of the stove pipe running water in the pipe?
It is certainly possible, but it isn't going to meet building code requirements.
Does Australia export steel pipe and tubes?
China is a large country to export steel pipe, if you want to buy steel pipe, you can import from China.
How do you calculate allowable leakage for HDPE pipes uring pressure hyodro pressure testing?
0.2 x(dia of pipe)x(length of pipe) For examble if you have 100mm diameter pipe and 50 m length .. 0.2x0.1x50= 1 litre and this is your allowable value
What is the minimum allowable grade on a 4in sewer pipe?
1% pitch is min
Should you use steel pipe for water?
No! Steel is a very bad choice for plumbing, as it rusts and can poison your water. PVC, copper, or clay pipes are recommended for plumbing.
What is maximum velocity in HDPE pipe?
2460 m/s
