To find Discharge 'Q' for ORDINARY HAZARD LPM

Q= K x Sqrt of P Discharge
K= 80 K - Factor Deponds on the bulb which you are selecting
P= 0.35 Kg/CM2 Pressure
Q= 47.3286382648 LPM For one sprinkler

We have to cosider for max water demand i.e, 16/18

sprinkler

Actual discharge for 16 sprinkler

16 x Q

Q= 2727.55 LPM For 12 sprinklers

To find diametre of the pipe the Q" sall be in M3

Q= LPM /( 60 *1000) M3 /sec

45.459228297
Q= 0.0454592283 M3 /s
Q= AxV
A= 3.14 x D2 / 4 M2 Area
V= 2.5 M/Sec Medium velocity

Q (3.14/D)2/4 x V
D Sqrt ((4 x Q ) / (3.14 x V M Diametre

Q1.85

p= C1.85 X d4.87 Bar

p = loss of pressure per meter length of pipe (bar)

Q = flow rate through the pipe (in LPM) 2727.554
d = mean bore of the pipe (in MM) 152.197
C = a constant for the type and condition of pipe 120
L = equivalent length of pipe and fittings (in M) 600 AS per the Drawing

The following values shall be used for ‘C’ in sprinkler installations for
calculation purpose:
cast iron = 100
mild steel = 120
galvanized steel = 120
