Will three quarter inch waterline carry as much water as 2 half inch waterlines?
There are two factors which determine the flow rate of water. Diameter and velocity. Resistance is not needed for determining the size of waterlines to their respective flow rates. Resistance is a component of velocity calculated for determining several aspects such as pump hp, and loss of velocity over a distance. The formula without the resistance component is: Q=Av where: Q=Flow Rate A=Inside pipe area v=velocity Calculate: Q= (3.14XR squared)v lets assume a velocity of 10 inches per minute For 1/2 inch pipe: Q = (3.14 X 1/4" X 1/4")X10 inches per minute Q = 1.96 Cubic inches per minute For 3/4 inch pipe: Q= (3.14 X 3/8" 3/8") X10 inches per minute Q = 4.41 Cubic inches per minute So one 3/4 inch pipe will carry roughly 12% more water than two 1/2 inch pieces.
What is the OD of 4 inch schedule pipe?

Why is the exhaust mounted to the vehicle by flexible joint?
Thermal expansion.An exhaust pipe gets up to 600 degrees or more. The coefficient of expansion of steel is 8 millionths of an inch per inch per degree. a 12 foot exhaust increasing (and decreasing) in temperature by 500 degrees will expand overall a little more than 1/2 inch. If the pipe were mounted solidly the mounting bracket would eventually break, or the pipe would break, from the strain put on it by the expansion.
What is the difference between schedule 40 and 10 gauge pipe?
The gauge of the pipe is the wall thickness. It is easier to say Schedule 40 pipe than .180 inch wall thickness. This is the SCH 40 wall thickness for a standard 12" pipe and the actual gauge thickness will vary based on pipe size and material. The larger the Schedule number, the thicker the pipe wall thickness. Pipe Schedule is also expressed in Std., X-Stg., and XX-Stg. since some thicknesses are more common than others.
What is the minimum slope permitted for 4 inch underground sewer pipe?
A slope of 1/4" in 12' is 0.0017 - inadequate for cleansing; it should be at least 0.0084 to produce a reasonable flow velocity of 2 ft/sec. The metric slope I was informed is 18mm in 1000mm Most codes require a 1/4" slope for each 12" of run.
How many gallons will flow through a 12 inch pipe at 50psi?
That depends entirely on the viscosity of the liquid in the pipe ! Water would flow faster than oil !
Volume of 12 in by 12 in pipe?
The volume of a 12 inch x 12 inch pipe is: 1,360 cubic inches
What is the circumference of 12-inch pipe?
The circumference of 12-inch pipe is: 37.7 inches. (C = d x Pi)Since 12 inch pipe is a nominal size and its outside diameter is 12.75 inches, the circumference of 12 inch pipe actually is : 40.035 inches
How many cubic inches are in 12 inches of 12 inch pipe?
you cannot have 12 inches of a 6 inch pie silly!!!(think about it)
How many gallons are in a foot of 1 inch pipe?
You multiply the radius of the circle 0.5 (radius of a 1 inch pipe) by 3.14(pi) by the height of the pipe 12 inches which gives you 18.84ozs.
What does 12-R in pipe threaders mean?

How many gallons of water per foot will a 12 inch pipe hold?
A 12 inch diameter round pipe will hold 4.89 UK gallons or 5.88 US gallons per foot.
6 inch weldolet welded to 12 inch pipe what is the inch dia involved?
The meaning of dia inch is the number of weld joints multiplied by the dia of a given pipe size, since the weld joints is on the 6" pipe, the calculations should be 1 weld x 6" = 6 dia inch.
How to reduce the diameter of pipe from 12 inch to 10 inch?
With large diameters like that you will most probably need to insert a weld-on 12 inch - 10 inch reducer at the point where the reduction is required. The pipe and reducer perimeter edges should be bevelled, say 45 degrees, for good weld penetration especially if the pipe conveys fluid under pressure.
