    This document provides calculations to determine the necessary water discharge rate, pipe diameter, pressure loss, and pump head for fire sprinkler systems based on the number of sprinklers and height of the building. It first calculates a discharge rate of 2727.55 LPM for 16 sprinklers. It then determines a pipe diameter of 152.197 mm and a pressure loss of 2.7623821807 bar for this scenario. Similar calculations are provided for varying numbers of sprinklers and pressure requirements to determine the appropriate discharge rates, pipe diameters, pressure losses, and total pump heads.

    The key steps presented are to calculate the discharge, diameter of pipe, pressure loss, and pressure required at the remotest point for sprinkler system design.

    The steps presented are to calculate the discharge for the hazard level, convert the discharge to diameter of pipe, calculate the pump head required including static head and height of building, and calculate the pressure loss through the pipes.

    The total head required is determined by the minimum pressure at the sprinkler, static head/height of building, and pressure loss through the pipes and fittings.

    To find Discharge 'Q' for ORDINARY HAZARD LPM

    Q= K x Sqrt of P Discharge
    K= 80 K - Factor Deponds on the bulb which you are selecting
    P= 0.35 Kg/CM2 Pressure
    Q= 47.3286382648 LPM For one sprinkler
