GPM Chart

Saw a GPM to heating chart somewhere (either here or on PM Magazine) but a seach just can't find it.
I remember is referenced something like 1/2" pipe is good for 1 1/2 GPM and 15,000 BTU. Anybody know where that chart may be?

Here is a chart from the Burnham Heating Helper that conveys the MBH (thousands of BTUH) capacity of various pipe sizes. To convert these capacities to GPM flow you divide them by 10,000.( Example: 31 MBH or 31,000 BTUH/10,000 = 3.1 GPM)

The Burnham Heating Helper has charts that have larger pipe diameters listed than the B&G chart. Both are excellent resources.0 -

to post the Heating helper chart but got an error that the Invision drive as full. Maybe it will work tonight.
