Anyone know of a link to obtain a chart for sizing HP natural gas??

Specifically I'm looking for 5psi inlet pressure, .5psi pressure drop, 500 equivalent feet of pipe load is 5310 cubic feet.


Thanks,

Ed

    Look in NFPA 54

    National Fuel Gas Code.

    My code book says

    2 1/2" will deliver 5,405 CFH at 500 ft 5PSI and .5 pressure drop with gas being .60 specific gravity.

    drop?

    Steve E. is correct, had to look in the old 54, but if you can work with a 3.5 pound drop 2" is enough.
