Nozzle Reaction 1


Nozzle Reaction 1 : (Fire Pr; Abb: NR) The force acting in the opposite direction to the water stream leaving the nozzle. The magnitude of this force depends upon the size of the nozzle tip and the water pressure and is due to the acceleration of the water in the nozzle. Note: The formula for calculating nozzle reaction is NR = gpm x P x 0. 505, where gpm is gallons per minute and P is psi pressure at the base of the nozzle
