    HOW TO CONSIDER THE STATIC HEAD IN A BRANCHED PIPE

    I was doing the head loss calculation for my swimming pool system for sizing suitable pump for filtration. Here I can use a maximum of 4" pipe. I calculated thr head requirement for my system. Here I have 7m static head and the friction losses around 13m. But I need to reduce the friction loss...

    How long can I keep pressure inside pipe for pressure test

    Hi Is it safe for keeping the pressure inside a high pressure PVC pipe for more than one day to test leakage? Is there any technical issue for that?

    How to create a system curve for recirculation system in Epanet

    I'm trying to use Epanet for calculating headloss. But I'm not getting the idea of the software clearly. I'm using a pump for recirculating water through the filter for cleaning the pool. Its just a simple system having pool, pump and filter. Water comes from 2 seperate lines and entering the...

    Why we are not considering the pipe diameter in static head in a headloss calculation?

    Actually for head loss calculation for a selection of a pump, we are taking the frictional loss plus static head. Here, the static head we are considering is vertical height between the suction water level and discharge water level, it is independent of the pipe size we are using. That is; for...

    HOW TO CONSIDER THE HEAD-FLOW CURVE OF A PUMP, IF USING DIFFERENT PIPES

    thread194-343587 I'm working in a swimming pool construction company as a mechanical engineer. Actually I'm not clear about how the head-flow curve mentioned for a pump.. The pump is coming with a standard connection of 2" or 3" likewise. so I think the head loss curve only means for the...
