I have a washdown spec for a unit we are designing. We need to be able to withstand a maximum of 85 gpm through a 5/8" nozzle at 75gpm. Now, I don't have access to equipment that can mimic that scenario.
What I'm wondering if can I use my average, run-of-the-mill, garden-variety pressure washer (rated at 2500psi) to mimic that test?
I'm looking at needing about 14gpm through that setup (based on calculations from http://books.google.com/books?id=_7...resnum=3&ved=0CCgQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q&f=false").
Can someone help me justify that calculation? I'm at a loss here...
