I am trying to calculate the time it will take for a 2-1/2" hose valve to relieve a standpipe system of air. I am designing a temporary standpipe system in NYC and the requirement is to fill the entire system with air and a single 2-1/2" hose valve needs to relieve the pressure within 3 minutes or a second will need to be added. My total system volume will be 1902 gallons and the staring air pressure will be at 18psi. Does anyone know of a way to calculate this?
Thanks for the help. Mike Stossel SET [400dpiLogoCropped] 36 Barren Road East Stroudsburg, PA 18302 Office: 973-670-2627 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
