I installed a shower head in a customer's bath tub last week. The customer was not happy with the flow of water coming from the shower--so I removed the shower head and noted the orfice that leads to the spray area in the shower head was only 3/32" in diameter. I drilled a hole enlarging the orfice to 3/16". I reinstalled the shower head and the customer was happy with the new larger volume of water.
Water pressure is at 25psi and enters the shower head via a 1/2" steel pipe and then from the orfice fills a standard shower head to spray out.
How can I calculate the volume differences with changes in orfice size?
Thank you
Josh
