Wells & water/ CALCULATOR

Water velocity in a pipe

Convert flow and internal pipe diameter into water velocity.

Use the design flow that can occur in this pipe.
Use the actual internal diameter, not the nominal label.
Water velocity

0.68 m/s

Internal flow area

491 mm²

Steady incompressible flow through a completely full circular pipe. This does not calculate friction loss, pressure surge, fittings or an acceptable code velocity.
