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 1psi. The assumed pressure is 1 psi.
To get the schedule number of the said tube,

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
