That would be awesome if we could put in custom pump parameters with so-many lph at 0 head.

Different pumps tend to graph differently depending upon their design. 1 pump may have a greater flow at high head than another eventhough at low head the first was greater.

Then ya got whether theres any growth in pipes creating drag, or on pump restricting flow or intake.....
I like those random calculator things though.
Have a huge book here on fluid mechanics that is far less appealing.... even if it probably does explain the world better than zeitgeist if I could just get past the first 1000 pages or so.
maths.... joy
