From my understanding, that formula origin is from the force exerted from the mass of the fluid above the point where you want to get your pressure. How does it work for a pretty much horisontal water pipe? The force from the gravity shouldn't work then, or am I missing something?
And the...
I guess I mean static pressure loss, although in this case it's a gain.
I did a rough sketch of the problem: (https://gyazo.com/0a9f9f01221aa906388cefb7be09e3d4)
Where there's only one pipe, with the hot water towards the customer.
The pressure at point A is lower than at point B, although the...
Yes, I know of it.
What I wrote earlier made it look like I'm doing something dangerous without correct knowledge, and I like the way you handled it. But it's only for my personal curiosity where I set up problems during downtime at work. I'll try some more on my own.
The goal is to increase the pressure in the entire system, and as the system is only classified for 16 bar pressure I can't exceed it. The elevation difference makes the static pressure to be higher than the dynamic pressure even if it's quite far away. What I'm trying to do first is calculating...
I have a problem where I want to find out the static pressure over a city in a water pipe system. As I know the elevations over the city I was first thinking of just using p = rho * g * h, but this should only apply if the pipe system were under water (if I use the density of water at least).
So...
