Domestic hot/cold water pipe sizing in practice limits maximum velocity in small branches to reduce most directly which problems?
Choices
- (A) Water-hammer, noise, and erosion/impingement in fittings from excessive velocity
- (B) Refrigerant superheat
- (C) Transformer hum
- (D) Duct leakage
Correct answer: (A)
Water-hammer, noise, and erosion/impingement in fittings from excessive velocity
Explanation
IPC good practice: velocity cap for noise, erosion, surges.
