My friend Brad Casterline wanted to offer an answer to Tom Duross'
question about how
long it would take to pump up a standpipe.
Please note, I'm not this smart!
P1=75 psi/.433=173 ft.
P2=200 psi/.433=462 ft.
deltaP=289 ft.
V1=5000 gal/7.48=669 ft^3.
P1V1=115,737 ft/ft^3, /289 ft=400 ft^3.
4 gpm/7.48/60=.009 ft^3/s.
400 ft^3/.009 ft^3/s=~12 hours.
