Product Flow Velocity in Pipe

Average velocity based on the continuity equation for incompressible fluids (A1v1 = A2v2) in SMS 3008 and DIN standard food-grade pipes. Shear rate for Newtonian and non-Newtonian laminar flow per Transport Phenomena — Christie J. Geankoplis. CIP velocity check ≥ 1.5 m/s.
