Will work it out but you don't add them together in terms of m3/h
In short this needs to be the same or higher than the amount you require so for both legs your above your requirement
it's pressure loss you add together[/QUOTE
Hi Shaun
Sorry my bad terminology , because of the different discharge rates between t.p and copper, I understand there not added together as that would give me a massive discharge rate it's the 2 items that have thrown me off , Can't find anything in my viper book explaining it in better detail if your not doing these sort if calculations daily , easily forgotten best get revising again lol
Top man cheers shaunIVT
25 meters of 28mm tracpipe
0.00064 per m of trac pipe
0.00064 x 25 = 0.016 iv
16 meters of 28mm copper
0.00054 x 16 = 0.00864 + 10% 0.009504 iv
meter U6 0.008 iv
0.016 + 0.009504 + 0.008 = 0.0335.04 ivt

34kw requiring 3.19m3/h
25 meters of 28mm tracpipe with 4 sweeping bends
0.3 x 4 = 1.2m
total length 26.2m suitable for 3.7m3/h
16 meters of 28mm pipe plus 13 elbows
0.80 x 13 = 10.4m
16 + 10.4 = 26.4m
total length 27m suitable for 5.06m3/h
Better than me matepressure drop with a loading of 3.20m3/h
28mm trac pipe
25m = 0.451 mbar
28mm copper
16m = 0.432 mbar
total pressure loss 0.883
estimated not very good at pressure losses
