    What is the flow rate in an open-ended pipe with increasing gauge pressure?

    Thanks Tim! If I assume that V1 and V2 are both zero, I can simplify and get V2e = V1e * sqrt(P2/P1). If I plug in the numbers from my example, then I get a flow rate of 16 gpm for the larger pump. It makes sense that the flow should ge greater with a bigger pump. What I don't understand...

    What is the flow rate in an open-ended pipe with increasing gauge pressure?

    This is not a homework problem but I'm going to try and present it like one. 1. Water is flowing through a horizontal, open-ended pipe, of constant diameter. A pump is mounted upstream and the water flows through the pipe. The pump supplies a gauge pressure of 20 psi and the flow rate is 8...
