This App allows the user to size the TracPipe® Flexible Gas Piping product, using an appropriate sizing method. The App displays the appropriate size of TracPipe® for a given capacity depending on the type of gas, supply pressure and allowable pressure drop selected by the user. By selecting the design parameters using easy drop down menus the user then chooses the length of pipe and tubing size, on the easy to read calculator wheel, to find the capacity capable of being delivered by any of the seven sizes offered by TracPipe®.
Gas piping systems sized with the TracPipe UK Size and Capacity Calculator must be sized in accordance with an appropriate sizing method, such as the method and example detailed in Appendix A (Informative) of BS 6891: 2015 Specification for the installation and maintenance of low pressure gas installation pipework of up to 35 mm (R1¼) on premises. The piping system designer must assure that the installation pipework is of adequate size to ensure that all appliances connected operate at their required heat input in accordance with the appliance manufacturers’ instructions.
