16 Piping Formulas You must Know [Handwritten Notebook]

Piping is a system of pipes used in industry to transport fluids (liquids and gases) from one point to another. Piping design is an engineering field that examines the efficient conveyance of fluids.

Wood, fibreglass, glass, steel, aluminium, plastic, copper, and concrete can all be used to make industrial process pipework (and associated in-line components). The in-line components, known as fittings, valves, and other devices, typically sense and control the pressure, flow rate, and temperature of the transmitted fluid, and are typically included in the field of piping design (or piping engineering), though sensors and automatic controlling devices may be treated as part of instrumentation and control design. Pipe and instrumentation diagrams are used to document piping systems (P&IDs). The tube cleaning procedure can be used to clean pipelines if necessary.

Piping design, the comprehensive specification of the actual piping architecture within an industrial facility or commercial building, is another term for piping. Previously known as drafting, technical drawing, engineering drawing, and design, this is now typically conducted by designers who have learnt to utilise computer-aided drawing or computer-aided design (CAD) software.

Plumbing is a piping system that most people are familiar with because it is the method of fluid transportation utilised to supply potable water and fuel to their homes and businesses. Plumbing pipes also remove waste in the form of sewage and allow sewage gases to be vented to the outside. Pipelines are also used in fire sprinkler systems to transmit nonpotable or potable water, as well as other fire-fighting solutions.
