The bachelorâs degree in engineering is a challenging program that requires a substantial amount of coursework in mathematics and natural sciences in addition to the core and elective engineering classes.
Fire Sprinkler Head - Minimum Pressure Requirement. I am reviewing Hydraulic Calculations for a wet type fire sprinkler system to be installed in an existing building. The new sprinkler system will connect to an existing fire pump fed by a 25,000 gallon underground water storage tank (the tank is dedicated to fire protection). From the hydraulic calculations, it appears that the designer is using a minimum pressure of 14 psig at the sprinkler heads located in the Hydraulic remote zone.
FAQs: Maintain Water Pressure with Irrigation Sprinklers on a Low Yield Well. Question: I have a well that works fine. But I had a sprinkler system installed and it drains the tank so fast that when it is running after about 5 minutes it will only hold at 20-25 psi until the sprinkler shuts off. What do I need to do?
