HTM02-01 Appendix G - Pressure Loss Calculating

This specialist course delivers a comprehensive understanding of pressure loss calculations and pipeline sizing for medical gas systems in full compliance with HTM 02-01 Appendix G. Building on foundational flow demand calculations, this course teaches the critical second step in MGPS design: determining the correct pipe diameter to ensure safe and efficient delivery of medical gases. Participants will master the use of pressure loss tables, equivalent length calculations, and system-wide verification methods to produce designs that meet the mandatory ≤5% pressure loss requirement. Through practical worked examples and a full hospital ward sizing exercise, this course ensures engineers can confidently size pipelines for oxygen, medical air, and vacuum systems.
