If I have a pump with a pressure gauge, followed by a diaphragm valve on the discharge side and I start to throttle the flow with the diaphragm valve, why does the pressure start to increase and therefore flow decrease? If you narrow a pipe, wouldn't Bernoulli's...

    Pipe Flow

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. According to Bernoulli's principle, when water is flowing through a pipe and the pipe restricts in some way, the velocity increases/pressure decreases through the restriction and then ramps back up to the velocity and pressure it was originally at once it...
