%0 Journal Article %T Recommendations for Pipes Selections in Heating and Cooling Systems %A C£¿t£¿lin Popovici %A Jan Ignat %J Bulletin of the Polytechnic Institute of Jassy, Constructions, Architechture Section %D 2009 %I Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Jassy %X The present study finds it¡¯s purpose in stressing that pipes selection is not just a matter of how it is used¡±, or how much does it costs¡± but also a question of where¡± . Using experience of other countries, the work has at the basis calculation values from France, USA and UK and recommends selection tables of pipes diameters for low, medium and high pressure drops. Also, it illustrates the diameter choice in two different situations based on the economic criteria. %K Pipe diameter %K pipes sizes %K pressure drops %K head losses. %U http://www.bipcons.ce.tuiasi.ro/Content/ArticleInformation.php?ArticleID=62
