Jet velocity - Nozzle hydraulic analysis
Input(s)
Q: Flow Rate (GPM)
F: Jet Size (1) (in.)
C: Jet Size (2) (in.)
B: Jet Size (3) (in.)
Output(s)
\(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{c}}\): Jet Velocity \((\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{s})\)
Formula(s)
\[
\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{c}}=\frac{417.2 * \mathrm{Q}}{\mathrm{F}^{2}+\mathrm{C}^{2}+\mathrm{B}^{2}}
\]
