Italian term
16 mt di prevalenza
Italian to English
Tech/Engineering
Construction / Civil Engineering
hydraulics for pool
This was found in the specifications for an Ozone Sanitation system:
Carico 2,5 mc/h a 16 mt di prevalenza
What exactly does "prevalenza" mean here? I have seen on other posts that in hydraulics it means "head", meaning "how far"... but how would I write that here in a list of specifications? Flow 2.5 mc/h at 16 mt. head??? If, indeed, that is its true meaning.
Thanks for any help by an expert in the field!
