Viscous Liquids - Recommended Delivery Flow Velocity

Flow velocities on delivery sides of pumps in viscous systems

Sponsored Links

As a rule of thumb - velocities that can be used in design of piping and pumping systems for viscous liquids:

Pipe Dimension		Viscous Liquid Delivery Velocity
inches	mm	m/s	ft/s
1	25	1	3.5
2	50	1.1	3.6
3	75	1.1	3.7
4	100	1.15	3.8
6	150	1.2	3.9
8	200	1.2	4
10	250	1.3	4.5
12	300	1.4	4.5
