Can Pipe Flow Wizard calculate the required minimum size diameter of a pipe?

Yes. When the pipe's internal roughness, length, number and type of fittings, plus the pipe's change in elevation are known, then for a given flow rate in the pipe and an allowed pressure drop, the MINIMUM INTERNAL DIAMETER of the pipe can be calculated.

The results information will displays the type of flow that occurs (laminar or turbulent), the associated Reynolds number, and the friction factor used in the diameter sizing calculation.
