Volume Flowrate of Air in a Pipe

How can we determine volume flowrate of air in a pipe?

we have simple equation

Q = Av

but how can air velocity be determined in the pipe

i got air velocity equation i.e.

v = Sqareroot(2500 DP/L)

while D = inner Dia of pipe

P= Pressure Dr

Vibration Dampening
