Head calculation

 Hss = Static suction head

Hst = Static Head

Hsl = Suction head losses

Hsm = Manometric suction head

Hsd = Static delivery Head

Hm = Manometric Head

Hdm = Manometric Delivery Head

Hdl = Delivery Head losses

V square/2g = Kinetic energy

Hf = Friction losses

Manometric Head, Hm = Manometric Delivery Head, Hdm - Manometric suction head, Hsm

Manometric suction head, Hsm = Manometric Delivery Head, Hdm - Manometric Head, Hm

Static Head, Hst = Static delivery Head, Hds - Static suction head,  Hss

Manometric Delivery Head, Hdm = Static delivery Head, Hds + Delivery Head losses, Hdl

Manometric suction head, Hsm = Static suction head, Hss - Suction head losses, Hsl - Vs square/2g

Manometric Head, Hm = Static Head, Hst + Suction head losses,, Hsl + Vs square/2g
