Water Mist System Design Calculation

The hydraulics notions useful to design water supply system.

Water mist system design calculation.

Water mist systems are becoming increasingly more popular as an alternative to traditional fire sprinkler systems but like any new technology we need to carefully understand its benefits and limitations and this is also true when we look at hydraulic calculations for such systems. Thinking in terms of the water pressure they use is a more precise way to categorize these systems because the water pressure is the main indicator of a misting system s performance. 2 0 design 8 2 1 water demand 8 2 2 water distribution systems 10 2 3 water distribution modeling 11 2 4 pumps 13 2 5 valves 17 2 6 tanks and reservoirs 18 2 7 controls devices 19 2 8 epa 20 3 0 laying out a project 21 3 1 existing data 22 3 2 schematic generally 22. Water pressure is commonly measured in psi pounds per square inch or bar.

Water mist system is a unique fire fighting system by dispersing water at high pressure through specially designed nozzles water is forced through micro nozzles to create an extremely fine mist that has a double extinguishing effect.
