How one design Air Compressor Pipe?

Air compressor installation Requirement 1.       Install the compressor unit on a solid, level floor suitable for taking its weight 2.       Position of the compressed air outlet valve. Air compressor pressure drop calculation is given bellow D P = (L X 450 X Qc= 1.85 )/ (d 5 X P ) Where, D= Inner diameter of the pipe in mm D P = Pressure drop in bar, pressure drop maximum considered 0.1 bar L= length of pipe in m P= Absolute pressure at the compressor outlet in bar Qc = Free air delivery of the compressor in l/s It must be follow the connection of the of the compressor air outlet pipe is made on top of the main air net pipe in order to minimize carry-over of possible condensate residue.
