5 P
-Now we have to balance the system by finding the real
Flow rate that is going to branch 6-7
Q6-7 = Ktot.
Caution: the pressure P5 in the equation above is
equal to 26 psi which belong to the real pressure
At nipple 5 calculated from the longest branch
1-2-3-4-5
5 P
-Q6-7 = 10.2. = 52 Gpm
-Total Q at pipe 8-5 = 52 +85.2=137Gpm.
-Total pressure at 5 =26 psi.

We continue backward by calculating the flow rate at
every branch , because of the smiliratiy in branch12-11-10-9-8
And branch 8,13,14,15,16 , the balance is already achieved
A new Problem may arise when the most remote
Sprinkler is not at the last branch of the tree system
-How then we can calculate the demanded flow rate and
The pressure ?
-As we see above sprinkler 1 will cost the pump
the maximum pressure
-we can use the hydraulic calulation to calculate the
Pressure at nipple5 and the flow rate sent to branch:
1-2-3-4-5 But the pressure at node 6 is unknown ,hence
The flow rate at node 6 is unknowas well ????
-The solution for this problem is to create 2 equations with
2 unknowns
-We know that P6 = P5- .
-We know that Q6 = . Equation 1

-Ktot 6 can be always calculated by assuming the 2
Branched 7-8 and 9-10 as the furthest branches.
