sorry Ivo, I don't understand the question

the flow rate was measured with a Danfoss MAG 5000 flowmeter with MAG 1100 ¼in. magnetic flowtube (±1/2% of reading accuracy)
- magnetic flow meters read the velocity which must be within a certain range, had I wished to measure higher flow rates I would have used a larger flow tube (which I have up to 2" ID, and positive displacement pumps to match)

pressure drop with a Foxboro 823DP differential pressure transmitter and Digitek digital gauge (~±1 to 2% accuracy)

the pressure drop is accurate over the flow rates shown, and as Cathar has pointed out will increase exponentially beyond the flow rates tested
varying the diameter of the column to be supported if it varies the pressure to be submitted to reach the same level

a bomb pushing a column with diameter of 1\2 inch reaches a height

the same bomb pushing a column with diameter of 3\4 of inch reaches another height

the commercial bombs are hour measured with a column in your exit diameter, hour measured with a diameter considered pattern by the manufacturer, or just for the generated psi.

I wanted something simple, I wanted to know when you speak in 3mh2o, that pressure you apply to the fluid to simulate that, I can like this in a rustic way to compare with the supported maximum columns published by the manufacturers of the bombs with yours, since they don't have a defined pattern

did you understand my considerations?
