When using and installing steel pipes, choosing the appropriate size of the steel pipes is of vital importance. The correct pipe diameter can ensure the flow rate and velocity of the system under the specified working conditions, while meeting the design pressure and corrosion resistance requirements, and also taking into account economy and construction convenience.
