Calculate Nozzle Pressure (Pnozzle)



Formula

The formula to calculate Nozzle Pressure (Pnozzle) is:

\[ P_{\text{nozzle}} = \left( \frac{FR}{29.71 \cdot D^2} \right)^2 \]

What is Nozzle Pressure?

Nozzle Pressure refers to the pressure exerted by the fluid as it exits the nozzle. It is an important parameter in various applications such as firefighting, irrigation, and industrial processes. The pressure is influenced by the flow rate and the diameter of the nozzle.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate Nozzle Pressure:

\[ P_{\text{nozzle}} = \left( \frac{100}{29.71 \cdot 2^2} \right)^2 = \left( \frac{100}{118.84} \right)^2 = \left( 0.841 \right)^2 = 0.71 \text{ psi} \]

The Nozzle Pressure (Pnozzle) is 0.71 psi.
