would some body tell me how much flow rate is safe in the pipe?

Iwhan,

By "safe" I'm going to assume that you are looking at the question from a structural integrity stand point. That is actually not a question for CFD folks. The structural integrity of piping systems is governed by the ASME Pressure Vessel and Piping Code (adopted as a standard in Taiwan).

For air piping, you will probably want ASME B31.3 which governs process piping. In some special cases the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section 3 or Section 8, should be used. If you're unclear which code to use, consult an expert.

Regards, Alton
