flowpres: Flow calculation as a function of working pressure

Description

This is a function to determine the flow rate of a spray nozzle as a function of the working pressure

Usage

flowpres(q1, q2, p1, p2)

Value

Returns values of flow (L/min) or pressure (bar)

Arguments

q1

Nozzle flow 1 (L/min)

q2

Nozzle flow 2 (L/min)

p1

Nozzle pressure 1 (bar)

p2

Nozzle pressure 2 (bar)

Details

Nozzle flow 1: $$q1=\frac{\sqrt{p1}}{\sqrt{p2}}*q2$$ Nozzle flow 2: $$q2=\frac{q1}{\frac{\sqrt{p1}}{\sqrt{p2}}}$$ Nozzle pressure 1: $$p1=(\sqrt{p2}*\frac{q1}{q2})^2$$ Nozzle pressure 2: $$p2=(\frac{\sqrt{p1}}{(\frac{q1}{q2})})^2$$
