FLOW TESTING, IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
Five terms worth knowing.
Static Pressure
The water system pressure measured before the test hydrant is flowing.
Residual Pressure
The pressure remaining in the system while water is being discharged from the flow hydrant.
Pitot Pressure
The velocity pressure measured at the flowing outlet and used with outlet size and coefficient to calculate discharge.
Flowing GPM
The calculated volume of water discharged from the hydrant, expressed in gallons per minute.
Available Flow at 20 PSI
A calculated projection of the water supply available when the residual pressure reaches 20 PSI; it is not a directly measured field reading.
