  2. Low-flow fixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-flow_fixtures

    Faucets that meet energy efficiency standards for WaterSense mustn’t use more than 1.5 gpm, a 32% decrease in flow rate over the federal requirement. [8] Reduced flow faucets often make use of flow restrictors or faucet aerators to reduce the flowrate of the water. Using a faucet with an aerator results in an average 42% reduction in water ...

  3. EPA WaterSense - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPA_WaterSense

    Using the efficiency standards established by EPACT92 as a baseline, the EPA instituted the following flow-rate guidelines for WaterSense: toilets must be manufactured with a maximum flush volume of 1.28 gpf; showerheads must have a maximum flow-rate of 2.0 gpm at 80 psi; and bathroom faucets must be manufactured with a low-flow volume rate of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residential_water_use_in...

    Water flowing through opened faucets (including kitchen, bathroom, utility sink faucets, and hose bibs) accounts for 19 percent (26.3 gphd, or 100 lphd) of total indoor water use in an average household where faucets are used 51 times per day. On average, faucets are opened for 30 seconds at a flow of 1 gpm (gallons per minute) and an average ...

  5. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

    It describes the relationship between the pressure drop across an orifice valve or other assembly and the corresponding flow rate. Mathematically the flow coefficient C v (or flow-capacity rating of valve) can be expressed as =, where Q is the rate of flow (expressed in US gallons per minute), SG is the specific gravity of the fluid (for water ...

  6. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve)

    Its rate is independent of the viscosity or temperature of the fluid or gas in the pipe, and depends only weakly on the supply pressure, so that flow rate is stable at a given setting. At intermediate flow settings the pressure at the valve restriction drops nearly to zero from the Venturi effect ; in water taps, this causes the water to boil ...

  7. Actual cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actual_cubic_feet_per_minute

    Actual cubic feet per minute (ACFM) is a unit of volumetric flow. It is commonly used by manufacturers of blowers and compressors. [1] This is the actual gas delivery with reference to inlet conditions, whereas cubic foot per minute (CFM) is an unqualified term and should only be used in general and never accepted as a specific definition without explanation.
