New INTERTAP Faucets...beyond frustrated

[passedpawn]

I don't have a webcam, otherwise I would be more than happy to post a video explaining the derivation. It's all simple first year engineering fluids work, I'm really not sure how Mike missed what he did. Would you be interested in me posting a complete derivation with explanation as a paper copy? Then you'd understand more than PhD Mike.

I'd be interested in seeing that. If you can PDF it, you can post that here. Or better, in its own thread as technical critique of the renowned site posted above. Probably best to post into the Brew Science area here. I'll keep an eye out for that.

I wouldn't lose sleep over the fittings that would most likely be common to any tubing solution. No line length calculator to my knowledge has ever considered losses due to fittings, which doesn't surprise me at all.

What I want to know is how long the tubing needs to be depending on the type of tubing. Mike's math works solely with solid PVC (eg: the virtually generic Bevlex 200) while lots of folks are other tubing types that perform differently...

Cheers!

ps: While I will look forward to the dissertation, without an accompanying calculator the practical value will be rather minimal...

True, but one necessarily must precede the other.

Of course, but my point remains...

Cheers!

I finally got around to posting the info, the thread is here, if any are interested.

Best,
