Friction loss is realized when water is pumped through a fire hose or pipe (ie 10 psi per 100 of 2 1/2" hose flowing 200 gpm). Some argue that the friction would eventually be too great to overcome and you would get 0 GPM. I say that some flow would occur at the end of a hose as long as you...
If you have a continuous supply of water from a city main averaging 80 psi flow, will friction loss in a fire hose or pipe ever prevent water from flowing out of an opening downstream, assuming there is no elevation gain to overcome?
Some friction loss calculations state that EVENTUALLY the...
