Pipe Flow Velocity Calculator
Calculate the mean fluid velocity in a pipe from its volumetric flow rate and inside diameter (or the flow rate a pipe carries at a given velocity), using the continuity equation V = Q/A. Works in metric or imperial units and checks the result against common piping design velocity guidelines.
