Answer:

Each type of nozzle has its discharge pressure and optimum flow rate which affect the hydraulic calculations.

Explanation:

There are different types of nozzles used for pumping operation. Each type of nozzle has its discharge pressure and optimum flow rate. And in hydraulic calculations, various nozzle parameters (such as discharge pressure and optimum flow rate) are needed. Therefore, the capabilities of these nozzles to generate the proper fluid volume and pressure must be carefully understood.
