    The document provides a table calculating water flow rates in gallons per minute (GPM) for PVC pipes of varying diameters and lengths. The pipe material is PVC with a Hazen-Williams coefficient of 150. The pressure drop over the pipe length is 20 psi. The table lists flow rates for half-inch to 5-inch diameter pipes in 5, 10, 15, 20, 40, and 100 foot lengths. An equation is also shown for calculating flow rate using pipe diameter, length, and pressure drop.

    Hazen Williams Equation as used in this spreadsheet:

    Q = 0.442 C D2.63(DP/L)0.54, where

    Q is the water flow rate in gpm


    D is the pipe diameter in inches
    L is the pipe length in ft

    DP is the pressure difference across pipe length L in psi
