BS 6891 Table Approximate flow of gas (m/hour) in straight horizontal copper tube. Flow rates are for low pressure supplies with 1 mbar differential pressure between and of pipe for gas of relative density of 0.6 To obtain the effective length of the pipework take the actual pipe length and add:0.3 For each 90 bend 0.5 For each elbow 0.5 For each tee To get the gas flow rate divide the appliance heat input by the calorific value (CV) of the gas Natural gas CV is 38.5MJ/m. Example: For a 10kW appliance Flow rate will be: 1038.5=0.26 litres/second, This can be converted to m/hour By multiplying by 3.6 to get 0.936m/hour
