Energy Efficiency

Inside cement mortar lining of the ductile iron pipes doesn't only ensure observation of the hygienic requirements at potable water transportation, but also improves the hydraulic propetries of the ductile iron pipelines.

Roughness factor (according to COLEBROOK formula) of the inner surface of the ductile iron pipe with inside cement-mortar lining is K - 0,03 for every single pipe. It is recommended to take K - 0,1 for DN 80-250 mm.; K - 0,08 for DN 300-700 mm.; K - 0, 05 for DN 700-1000 mm. for calculations when deigning pipeline systems out of ductile iron so that all friction losses in the assembled pipeline system are considered. that means that ductile iron pipes with inside cement-mortar lining permit to reduce hydraulic losses through friction in the pipeline to a considerable extent and correspond to all the modern energy conservation requirements.

Besides, big flow section of ductile iron pipes compared to polyethylene pipes (with the equal value of nominal bore DN), makes possible a considerable pumping cost reduction of the transported liquid.
