| Equation:
P = (2*S*T)/((O.D.-2*T)*SF) |
| |
| Where: |
P = Fluid Pressure (psi) |
|
|
T = Pipe Wall Thickness (in) |
| O.D. = Pipe Outside Diameter (in) |
| SF = Safety factor
(General Calculations 1.5 – 10, Use 1 For Bursting Pressure) |
| S = Material
Strength (psi) |
Ultimate Tensile strength or Yield strength can be
used. Ultimate should be used to determine the bursting
pressure. Yield can be used for estimating pressures at which
permanent deformation begins.
