REFERENCES 757 <br /> 11-7. If the flow to a lateral is 5.0 gal/min and the lateral contains 26 orifices spaced 3 ft apart <br /> on center,determine the minimum theoretical size for the lateral so that the discharge <br /> from the first and last orifices will not vary by more than 5 percent, 10 percent, or <br /> 15 percent (to be selected by the instructor). What practical lateral size would you <br /> recommend and what will be the corresponding difference(percent)between the flow <br /> through the first and last orifices? <br /> 11-8.
