Question about hydraulic calculation of flexible pipes
Question about hydraulic calculation of flexible pipes
(OP)
This is general question. How do you guys claculate the pressure loss through a flexible pipe supplying a sprinkler? From the manufacturer's data I see one column with the actual pipe length and one with the equivalent based on 1" S40. So assuming I have my piping system made of S40, do I need to simply add these two values or just ignore the actual length and carry only the eq. length into the calcs?

Also, Verify if FM is involved as you can see higher values in their column...

We may assume just the one in design. The plumbers, hvac, and electrical folks make it quite another in the field..
