It is desired to deliver 60 m3/h of water at 20◦C through 100 m of horizontal asphalted cast iron pipe. The pressure drop for the length of pipe cannot exceed 50 kPa. What is the smallest commercially available pipe diameter that will accomplish this? A good place to start your analysis is the 3 in nominal pipe, but this is not the answer
