42
Q

1st Principle of Friction Loss

A

All variables being the same, friction loss will vary directly with the length of hose or pipe.

43
Q

2nd Principle of Friction Loss

A

All variables being the same, the friction loss fairies approximately with the square of the increase in the velocity of the flow.

44
Q

3rd Principle of Friction Loss

A

When the flow remains constant, the friction loss and a hose will decrease when the diameter of the hose is increased. Friction loss varies inversely to the fifth power as a diameter of the hose.

45
Q

4th Principle of Friction loss

A

For any given flow velocity, friction loss is independent of pressure. the velocity of water through a hose line, not pressure, causes friction loss.

50
Q

Around the Pump system

A
