Design & SizingCâu 4 / 110
A fixture is located 46 ft above the water meter. Using 0.433 psi per foot of elevation, how much static pressure is lost to elevation between the meter and that fixture?
a.23.0 psi
b.34.5 psi
c.46.0 psi
d.19.9 psi
Giải thích
Static loss = height x 0.433 psi/ft = 46 x 0.433 = 19.9 psi. Every foot of rise costs 0.433 psi and must be subtracted from the available supply pressure before you can check the residual at the fixture. The 46 psi answer wrongly treats 1 ft as 1 psi.

- Using the 0.408 velocity relationship v = 0.408 x Q / d^2 (v in ft/s, Q in gpm, d in inches inside diameter), what is the velocity of 18 gpm flowing in a pipe with a 1.00 in inside diameter?
- Cold-water piping is commonly limited to a maximum velocity of about 8 ft/s. Using v = 0.408 x Q / d^2, what is the approximate maximum flow a pipe with a 1.025 in inside diameter (nominal 1 in type L copper) can carry without exceeding 8 ft/s?
- A system has 62 psi at the meter. It must overcome 22 psi of elevation, 14 psi of friction loss in the piping, and deliver a fixture that requires 8 psi minimum flow pressure. What residual pressure remains at the fixture?
