To calculate the gallons per minute (GPM) for a 2-inch pipe at 15 psi for water, you can use the Hazen-Williams equation or empirical formulas specific to pipe flow. Generally, for a 2-inch pipe, the flow rate at 15 psi is approximately 20-30 GPM, depending on factors like pipe length, fittings, and roughness. For more precise calculations, specific conditions and parameters would need to be considered.

What is the flow rate of water through 0.75 inch pipe at 40 psi?

The flow rate of water through a 0.75-inch pipe at 40 psi can be estimated using the Hazen-Williams equation or similar formulas, which consider factors like pipe diameter, pressure, and water temperature. For a 0.75-inch schedule 40 PVC pipe, the flow rate at 40 psi is typically around 10 to 15 gallons per minute (GPM). However, specific flow rates can vary based on factors such as pipe length, fittings, and the condition of the pipe. It's best to consult detailed hydraulic tables or conduct measurements for precise calculations.


What is average price a plumber charges to snake a clogged pipe?

150 plus hours Normally it would depend on the size of the pipe For example 11/2 -2" would be a minimum of $150 up to a half hr in ime .. A Roto guys charged a lady $450 to clear an 11/2 tub stoppage in 15 minutes and the sataoppage was not cleared properly Main sewers and storm drains require a larger snake and heavier equipment thus the normal rate is $225 - $550. PER HALF HR. In cases of a severe roots or grease stoppages $1,200 per hr is the average rate using a large Jetter with over 2,500 PSI @10 GPM

What is the distance and elevation calculation to make a gravity fed water systems pressure effective for a large seasonal cabin with 1 shower and no indoor plumbing?

To get 10 PSI you need to have a tank elevated to a height of 23.ft If you know the pressure required at the fixture all you do is take the presure needed ADD 4 PSI to allow for friction losses and times it by 2.31 Example you need 15 PSI x 2.31 = 34.65 Now take the height of 34.65 and times it by .434 = 15.03 PSI

My well is making 50 gallons of water per minute How do I convert 50 gpm to PSI?

gpm and psi are two different measures that are not directly related, though a change in one will affect the other. To get the pressure at a certain point in your piping, you would need to measure it. Or, if you know that your pump is rated for 50 gpm at 80psi (1 foot water column = 2.31 psi) and your pump is lifting a column of water 15' (34.65 psi), then you should have about 45 psi residual. If you have long runs of horizontal pipe you may need to add some for pipe friction also.

If my my water runs at 5 gpm why should I find a water softener that puts out more than 15 gpm?

You should put a water softener that puts out more than 15 gpm so that it is able to accommodate the 5 gpm.You should find a water softener that puts out more than 15gpm to accommodate the 5 gpm.


How many feet of water does 15 PSI represent?

There are about 34.6 psi in 15 feet of water.


Will 2600 gpm flow through 6 inch pipe?

Barely/Maybe. Exact values depend on the type of pipe, but at 2600 gpm your velocity in the pipe is pretty close to 30 ft/sec. That is at the very upper limit (really a little above) the recommended flow velocity in piping. Head loss would be about 15 psi/100ft. So, if you had a short length at this size and flow it might work OK, but for any significant length the head loss would kill you in pumping costs.


How fast is water 50 PSI?

The speed of water at 50 PSI (pounds per square inch) can vary depending on the diameter of the pipe through which it flows. However, in general terms, water pressure of 50 PSI can result in flow speeds ranging from 5 to 15 feet per second in typical plumbing systems. To calculate the exact flow rate, you would also need to consider factors such as pipe size, friction, and any fittings or obstructions in the system.


How many amps for 1.5hp pool pump?

not enough information has been given to answer this question. there are two variables: flow rate - expressed in gallons/minute (gpm) and pressure expressed in pounds per square inch (psi). depending on how it's set up, a 1 hp pump could move a little bit of water very far and fast (low gpm/high psi) - like a pressure washer... or it could move a lot of water, but not with great pressure (like a sewage pump)


What type of pump moves the water upward inside of the deep-well pipe?

Usually a submersible. This is a long thin pump near the bottom of the well. Domestic ones are typically 4" round and about 3 feet long and can pump up to 15 gpm to the surface from 200-300 feet down, in a 1" poly/rubber pipe.


What is the water pressure on a surface at 15 feet of depth?

What amount of water comes out of a hose in 1 hour with normal preasure?

"Normal Pressure" varies depending on where you live. Most municipalities try to provide water between 40 and 80 psi. That's a pretty big range. How much water comes out of your garden hose varies depending on your service pressure, the length of hose, how much water your using in your house at that moment, and where the hose is located in relation to your water service. The most accurate way for you to figure it out is to take a 5 gallon bucket (the orange Home Depot buckets are about 5 gals) and time how long it takes you to fill it. If it takes 1 minute to fill 5 gallons then you're only getting a flow rate of 5 gallons per minute (this would be uncommonly slow). If it takes 30 seconds, then you're at 10 gpm. 20 seconds -> 15 gpm, etc. If you don't need to be terribly accurate, it's pretty safe to assume somewhere between 15 to 30 gpm for normal residential service. 15 gpm is on the lame end and 30 gpm would be pretty impressive for a garden hose.


What is the pressure in psi required to lift water 15 feet?

To calculate head pressure in psi from a head height given in feet you multiply by 0.434. 15 x 0.434 = 6.51 psi
