Ok, thanks so much Travis!

Thanks Travis_King, your second post helped me understand exactly what you're saying. I found K (from smaller diameter = 0.2072, from larger diameter = 13.8082), our source is a fire hydrant, so I suppose there are long pipes from the main to the hydrant, but we get consistently 75-80 psi at...

Here is a picture of the system. Thank you, I think your reply helps, but I am not concerned about frictional losses right now. Just the loss from the nozzle and what my flow rate will be. I feel like I'm missing one piece of the puzzle. Some input or assumption I don't have right quite yet.

Sorry I found a more applicable location for this question so I moved the thread to here: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=764003

Hey everyone, sorry I posted this in two different forums. I think this forum was more applicable so I wanted to move it. I have a fluid system of water coming from a pressure source. Then there is a converging nozzle, which I have calculated the resistance coefficient using Crane's Manual...

Hey everyone, I have a fluid system of water coming from a pressure source. Then there is a converging nozzle, which I have calculated the resistance coefficient using Crane's Manual and it has an outlet to the atmosphere. I have tried to simplify the system. The full system is a pressure...
