The piping system of this tannery waste water treatment plant used stainless steel, austhenitic 18Cr, 8Ni

type of tube as its material of construction. This type of material has a maximum allowable stress of 75, psi. The pressure inside the tube of waste water experiences 1 psi. The assumed pressure is 1 psi. To get the schedule number of the said tube,
ScheduleNo = 1000 P 1000 100 = S 75000

The pressure in"ol"ed in the specified location in different e-uipment can be calculated using the hydrostatic pressure formula since the waste water is mostly composed of water.

The waste water also exhibit contrasting force as they flo inside the tube. This force is called friction. This force is also calculated because it also greatly affect the flow. The friction factor can be sol"ed using
