Pipe is Fully Filled or Partially

03/02/2012 5:31 AM

We have installed a DN700mm flowmeter in 720NB line. The normal flow rate is 1300CUM/hr. Whether at this condition the pipe will be full or not. please guide.

The pipe after the flow meter is directly entering into bottom of tank. The tank diameter is 6M and height is 5M. Whether this back pressure is sufficient for the pipe to be full.

One question:

What makes you think the pipe would not be full?

In other words, why are you questioning this?

What sort of flowmeter, Guv, and is the pipe pointing uphill in the direction of flow, or not?

Is the tank empty, or full, and what is the fluid?

There would be no back pressure if the tank were empty.
