The Correlation Between Water Temperature and Friction Loss in Water Pipes
Commonly known factors in pressure loss calculations include the flow rate of the water, the pipe diameter, and the velocity of the water.
However, it is important to understand the other factors too.
What is hard water?
Hard water is caused by high levels of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium, in the water.
Water picks up these minerals as they pass through rock formations, such as limestone or gypsum, which are rich in calcium and magnesium.
10 Steps to Creating an Easily Maintainable System
This one should go without saying… but a correct design is crucial for maintenance because it ensures that the system functions efficiently and effectively, minimising the likelihood of breakdowns, complaints, and the need for repairs.

A water storage tank is a container used to store and hold water.
Tanks are typical for the following systems: Rainwater collection/irrigation systems…
Quality Control in Engineering Designs
Engineers working in design know that quality control places significant demands on their work. From pipe sizing to pressure calculations, engineers must be able to quickly deliver quality systems that are accurate, compliant, and work for the client’s needs.
