How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?
We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :
The formula used is: ΔP = 0.0668 μv ÷ D², in which: ΔP is pressure loss per 100 feet of pipe; μ is viscosity in centipoises (not SSU); v is flow velocity in feet per second; D is inside diameter of pipe, in inches.
These minor pressure losses are usually caused by secondary flows within the fittings and valves that are caused by curvature or recirculation of the fluid. Similar to pipe friction leading to pressure loss in straight pipes, the minor head losses are roughly proportionate to the hydraulic system flow rates.
Hydraulic oil is a type of engine oil that helps prevent friction and wear on the parts of a machine that move together, such as pistons and bearings. If hydraulic oil levels are too low, these parts can start to wear down prematurely, leading to decreased efficiency and even possible damage.
The most common causes of poor hydraulic performance are particulate contamination, water contamination, clogged filters, high fluid temperature and incorrect hydraulic fluids.
To calculate hydraulic press force, first find piston area from piston diameter. Then multiply the pressure in psi by cylinder area in inches. Divide force in pounds by 2,000 to get force in tons.
In the studied gravity ESS, hydraulic loss should be determined as there is a loss of energy within the moving fluid in the container and the return pipe. These losses are due to friction within the moving fluid or in the pipe walls. In addition, fluid viscosity has also an impact on the system dynamics and efficiency.
A hydraulic drop is a type of local phenomena found in open channel flow. It is a rapid change in the depth of flow from a high stage to a low stage that results in a steep depression in the water surface. It is often caused by an abrupt change in the channel slope.
Pressure-loss equation
, the hydraulic diameter of the pipe (for a pipe of circular section, this equals D; otherwise DH = 4A/P for a pipe of cross-sectional area A and perimeter P) (m); , the mean flow velocity, experimentally measured as the volumetric flow rate Q per unit cross-sectional wetted area (m/s);

1750 psi Electric Pressure Washer: My pressure washer is losing pressure and is pulsa…
ANSWER : If the pressure washer is pulsating then that is a sign of check valve failure. You may be able to clean of replace the check valves. Replacing the head is the wrong way to go. This is completely unnecessary. If you can tell me the model number of your pressure washer then I can assist you better in pointing you in the right direction.

Need help in getting Honda engine on NorthStar pressure washer to run.
ANSWER : Could be low water pressure I have found.Also, I purchased a can of “stuff” at Lowes today which allows you to circulate a liquid substance which lubricates the pressure pump….the pump could be frozen up…I have a rotating nozzle which I bought…and it had frozen up…this stuff works

<!– from fixya rte –>Rope pull start is stuck, won't pull out – Honda Black Max 2600 PSI Pressure Washer
ANSWER : Check the oil level, if it’s very low or burnt then it may have siezed up internally.
It could also be that be that the cylinder is filled with oil or fuel.
if the washer was tipped over the fuel or oil may have migrated in to the piston combustion area.

I have a Clean Shot 2050 PSI washer. I can get it to start, but I have very little prerssure. A household shower has more pressure. The garden hose nozzle has more pressure. Any thoughts????
