Objectives:
To enumerate necessary requirements needed to select and design a pipeline
from one equipment to another.
To be acquainted with the complicated field of fluid flow pipeline calculations.
To provide a standard in establishing pipe wall thickness, material of
construction, and allowable stress in a given condition.
