    How does pressure drop work in parallel?

    Hi, To avoid this type of question, use always absolute pressure to describe your system. At the intersection of ducts, the pressure is the same. You need to balance the flowrates in the different ducts to get your answer. Excel is a good tool for such application , using solver. Good luck Pierre

    Electrical Centrifugal pump

    Hi moon161, Affinity law is about Head, not Pressure. Hi Mohamed, If your pump is equipped with a wheel (max diameter), the cheapest way will be to trim it. Check the pump curves Head vs Flow for different wheel diameter Pierre
