Archimedes Principle and Slipline Pipe Fills
To Determine water fill level in sliplined pipe
The purpose of this program is to determine the minimum water amount needed in a sliplined pipe
to keep it submerged given a density of Elastizell used for sliplining.
Project Name:
Applicator:
Location:
Date:
Therefore, in order for the pipe to stay submerged:
The Density of Elastizell<Total Density of internal pipe
Please enter the following information specific to the job:
Enter the Inside Radius (IR) in feet:  
Enter the Outside Radius (OR) in feet:  
Enter wt of inner pipe in pounds per linear foot  
Enter desired Elastizell density  
 
For pipe to stay submerged, density of Elastizell must be less than the density of the internal pipe.
Density of internal pipe = weight of internal pipe/volume of internal pipe
Weight of internal pipe = weight of actual pipe+water weight
Weight of actual pipe = wt/linear ft.*length of pipe   lbs./ft.
weight of water = Density x volume = 62.4 pcf*pi*IR^2*percentage of pipe filled  
Volume of pipe=pi*OR^2*l #VALUE! cubic feet (for 1ft. length)
Therefore, in order for pipe to stay submerged:
Density of Elastizell < Density of internal pipe
Density of Elastizell < ((Wp+(Dw)*(%f)*(pi)*(IR^2))/((pi)*(OR^2))
For the Pipe to remain submerged, the pipe must be at least #VALUE! % filled with water
