But the flow axis for a N1.85 is not a logarithmic scale.

When plotting more than two points on an N1.85 graph you are essentially trying 
to eyeball a best fit to a 1.85 power water supply curve. If you are 
cook-booking, i.e. you don’t really know what this N1.85 is actually doing, 
then you might be better off looking at each normal looking 1.85 power water 
supply curves that fit each pair of static and residual numbers you have. That 
way you can get a much better feel of the water supply variance the data is 
theoretically showing. You will also be working with stuff that makes plain 
sense.
