= 2.707 mm

Minimum wall thickness required to satisfy the design rules of the code:

t m = t + c (c - corrosion allowance)

tm = 2.707 + 2

= 4.707 mm

Nominal wall thickness:

= 5.379 mm

Referring to ASME 36.10, the nearest commercial NPS 6 pipe whose wall thickness exceeds

5.379 mm is SCH 40 (STD) with a nominal thickness of 7.11 mm .Therefore NPS 6, SCH

40(STD) pipe meeting the requirements of ASTM A 106 Grade B is selected for this application.
