Abstract: 
Pipe designers and engineers often encounter complex mathematical equations to determine the diameter required for adequate compressed air at specific flow velocities. This article aims to simplify the calculation of compressed air pipe sizes. The formulas and factors derived herein can be utilized for determining pipe diameters in compressed air applications. Ultimately, the findings provide engineers and designers with practical tools to enhance the reliability and efficiency of compressed air system.
