| To calculate percent of open area per ft. of perforated pipe: | ||||||
| Percent Open = (Inlet Area/Total Area) X 100 | ||||||
| Inlet Area (Sq.In.) = Square Inches of Inlet Area Per Foot of Perforated Pipe | ||||||
| (Figure from above table using slot width and number of slots per foot) | ||||||
| Total Area (Sq.In.) = Actual Outside Diameter of Pipe (Inches) X .314 x 12" | ||||||
