Travis,

When you finish I would really like to see the results of your DW calc
compared to a regular old HW calc just to see the order of magnitude.

Since we deal in GPM have you found a way to account for the gradual
dilution of the solution for the first minute of flow or isn't that a
factor?

Subject: k-factor in DW calcs

I remember reading an article in one of the sprinkler magazines about a
year
or so ago on how you have to adjust the k-factors for DW calculations.
Does
anyone have a copy of that article they can send, or at least post the
formula to adjust the k-factor?  I have found out that hydratec does not
automatically perform this adjustment.
 
Thanks for your help.
