    This document calculates the pipe size needed for a 15MW steam turbine generator. It determines that the required flow is 16.11 kg/sec at a pressure of 64 kg/cm2 and temperature of 490°C. Based on the permissible velocity of 40 m/sec, the calculated pipe diameter is 165.7 mm or 8 inches. The minimum thickness is calculated to be 11.069 mm. Rounding up to the nearest standard size of 12.7 mm, the recommended pipe is 8" schedule 80 with an outer diameter of 219.1 mm and wall thickness of 12.7 mm.

    CALCULATION OF THE PIPE SIZE FOR 15MW STG:Input Values :

    Pressure

    64 Kg/cm2

    temperature

    490 0C

    flow

    58 T/hour

    Permissible velocity

    40 m/sec

    CALCULATION PART :Q = A*V


    Q = 58*1000 Kg/sec
    3600
    = 16.111 Kg/sec
    Specific volume = 0.05320 m3/sec
    Q = 16.111*0.05320 = 0.8571 m3/sec
    Q = /4 d2 *v
    = 0.785 d2 * 40
    d = 165.7 mm
    But From tables we have to use 8 pipe
    Based on this pipe the out side diameter of the pipe is
    D = 165.7 mm
    THICKNESS CALCULATION
    tmin = P*D

    +A

    2(SE+PY)
    P = 64 Kg/cm2
    D = 219.1 mm
    S = 9.3 Ksi (from tables)

    = 9.3*1000*0.0703 Kg/cm2
    = 653.79 Kg/cm2
    E = Efficiency factor = 1 (for seam less pipe)
    = 0.85(electro resistant pipe)
    y = 0.4
    A = Additional thickness = 0.075
    tmin = 64*21.91

    0.075

    2(653.79*1+64*0.4)
    = 11.069 mm
    By providing allowance (12.5%)
    tr = tm * 1.143
    =11.069*1.143 = 12.65 mm
    From tables the nearest value is 12.7 mm
    So we can take 8 schedule 80 (219.1* 12.7 mm)
    d = D-2*t min
    = 219.1-2(12.7 = 193.7mm
    Based on this diameter , velocity decreases.
    So the actual velocity is ,
    Q= /4 d2 *v
    0.8571 = 0.785 (0.1937) 2 *v
    V= 29.1 m/ sec
    So the pipe size is 8 schedule 80 (219.1*12.7 mm).
