Friction loss and flow velocities in PVC and CPVC pipes Schedule 80 with water are indicated in the table below. The table may can be used for pipes in other thermoplastic materials where the inner diameter corresponds to PVC Pipe
 Schedule 80
1 ft (foot) = 0.3048 m
1 ft/s = 0.3048 m/s
1 gal (US)/min =6.30888x10-5 m3/s = 0.0227 m3/h = 0.0631 dm3(liter)/s = 2.228x10-3 ft3/s = 0.1337 ft3/min
1 psi/100 ft = 2.3 ftH2O/100 ft = 2288 mmH2O/100 ft = 22.46 kPa/100 m
Note! Velocities should in general not exceed 5 feet per second to avoid noise and damaging wear and tear of pipes and fittings.
The values can be used to calculate minor pressure loss with the Equivalent Pipe Length Method.

 Water flow in thermoplastic PVC and CPVC pipes Schedule 40 - friction loss (ft/100 ft, psi/100 ft) and flow velocities at dimensions ranging 1/2 to 16 inches Friction loss and flow velocities in PVC and CPVC pipes Schedule 40 with water are indicated in the table below. The table can be used for pipes in other thermoplastic materials where the inner diameter corresponds to PVC Pipe
 Schedule 40.
1 ft (foot) = 0.3048 m
1 ft/s = 0.3048 m/s
1 gal (US)/min =6.30888x10-5 m3/s = 0.227 m3/h = 0.0631 dm3(liter)/s = 2.228x10-3 ft3/s = 0.1337 ft3/min
1 psi/100 ft = 2.3 ftH2O/100 ft = 2262 mmH2O/100 m = 22.6 kPa/100 m
Note! Velocities should not exceed 5 feet per second.
The values can be used to calculate minor pressure loss with the Equivalent Pipe Length Method.
