Well that depends, first off pressure is equal to specific gravity times height. P=SG*h. so the pressure due to the water column would be 0.0361 psi given that SG of water = 62.4 lb/ft^3. Then you have to take into consideration any other pressures acting on the water. If the top of the column is open to the air then the absolute pressure would be 14.7321 psi given that atmospheric pressure is 14.696. The basic formula to make this calculation in any situation is P=P0+SG*h where P0 is the pressure above the column.

7 inches water column equal how many PSI?

1 psig is equivalent to 51.71 mm (2 in) of mercury or to approx 700 mm (27.5 in) of water. Technically one cannot have apsig. Psig represents a pressure reading of the pressure above normal atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi. You mean a psi.

What is the head loss of a 3 inch column of water at 60 psi and 60 feet?

For water, a 60 ft vertical change is equivalent to about 26 psi change. So if the pressure is 60psi at the bottom, it will be 34 psi at the top. See related link.

Head pressure of water?

Head pressure is created by a column (depth) of water in a container. Pipe is considered a container. Diameter is not a factor. The higher the column of water, the more psi it creates. Multiply column height of water by .434 to get psi of water.

How do you calculate water pressure at top if water pressure given at bottom?

Every 2.3077 feet of water in a column increases the water pressure at the bottom of the column by 1 pound per square inch.A 39 foot column of water with a pressure of 120 psi at the base will have a pressure exerted on its top surface of 103.1 psi.39 ft/ 2.3077 ft/1 psi = 16.9 psi ; 120 psi -16.9 psi = 103.1 psievery meter of water in a column increases the pressure at the base of the column by 0.1 kg./ sq. cm (or 1 kilopascal)A 12 meter column of water exerts a pressure at its base of 12 kPa. (or 1.2 kg/sq. cm)
