How high a building could fire hoses effectively spray from the ground? Fire hose pressures are around 1 MPa. (It is also said t

hat larger fire engine mounted pumps can deliver from 90-300 gallons per minute, and hoses can be as wide as 30 cm diameter What alternative estimate would that info give you?)

Answer:

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

Explanation:

The phenomenon can be modelled after the Bernoulli's Principle, in which the sum of heads related to pressure and kinetic energy on ground level is equal to the head related to gravity.

\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}= z_{2}+\frac{P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g}

The velocity of water delivered by the fire hose is:

v_{1} = \frac{(300\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot(\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.3\,m)^{2}}

v_{1} = 0.267\,\frac{m}{s}

The maximum height is cleared in the Bernoulli's equation:

z_{2}= \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}

z_{2}= \frac{1\times 10^{6}\,Pa-101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa}{(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} + \frac{(0.267\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}

z_{2} = 91.640\,m
