Pump pressure for drip irrigation from a barrel with sprayers
Hi Spinnor, Pressurized municipal tap water is available but won't meet the requirement. For the physics of the fluid, water closely approximates what is being pumped into the plants. The actual fluid I use is based on tap water which I first condition, and then dissolve varying ratios of...- halfgt2

Pump pressure for drip irrigation from a barrel with sprayers
Thanks Spinnor for coming by to help! The water needs to be delivered as a spray, if that weren't the case, I could buy a low flow rate (very inexpensive) pump and deliver through rather small tubes. If it is dripped in, it will not sufficiently wet the area necessary for healthy root space...- halfgt2

Pump pressure for drip irrigation from a barrel with sprayers
Hi physicists! I am scratching my head to remember the most basic laws of fluid flow while I try to irrigate things from a barrel. Not exactly rocket science, I know ;-) But very exciting for me ... The situation is simply a pump (cheap submersible one) put into a barrel (sitting on the...- halfgt2

Brushing up on quantum mechanics after years away
Studied physical sciences too long ago, and need some help brushing up ;-) Was pretty good at quantum mechanics at one time but now struggling to just do classical LOL Cheers! halfgt2- halfgt2
