There is so much to learn here that it is not possible to touch every aspect. It is important to understand in these hydraulic calculations is that you consider only a steady state where nothing is changing in time during the flow. Otherwise you will be lost in questions in your own mind. So to

I bought small *paper* candy bags like you would see in the "older" general store days. I have seen many issues with plastic based bags. Thanks, John John August Denhardt, PE *Vice President, Engineering and Technical Services* *American Fire Sprinkler Association* m: p: 301-343-1457

Hidde, I'm in complete agreement with Craig Prahl on this. I'm unfamiliar with the software you're referencing and I have no way of knowing if it can perform hydraulic calculations for a fire sprinkler system in the manner that most fire sprinkler systems are designed.  In brief terms, fire

Thanks for that. Next question is what is the acceptable way to secure those cellophane or thin paper bags to the sprinklers? Taylor Schumacher, ET J-Berd Mechanical/Security Fire Sprinkler/Berd Electric 1 Industrial Blvd | Sauk Rapids, MN 56379 Office: 320.656.0847 |

I buy them online from CelloBags.com - you need the natural ones, most bags that you buy marked cellophane bags are actually plastic but the natural ones are really cellophane. I found this out the first time I ordered from them, they called me because I was a first-time customer and fire

U-Line is a good source also, actual cellophane, not cello mix, etc. – same as John mentions, enough of them for eternity quantity-wise. Spencer Tomlinson, PE Owner, Fire Protection Engineer [red logo] Ph: 316-202-6412 Fax: 316-202-2346 Cell: 620-955-7293 From: John Denhardt Sent: Tuesday,

This link popped up in the forum a year or so ago. I have never used them (not a recommendation). https://www.clearcellobags.com/catalog/item/6438551/6271045.htm I generally call out thin paper bags since cellophane is so similar in appearance to plastic sandwich bags. Matt
