The Weymouth equation gives lower pressure drops that the other correlations typically used to predict the flow of natural gas through pipelines. It is only valud for steady-state adiabatic flow.

The Weymouth equation is not particularly accurate for large diameter pipelines (use the Panhandle B equation for diameters of greater than 15 inches).
