The test was run for two different tube lengths, 1 m and 44.5 cm. The test was run at many different flow rates from head loss of 3 cm to 25 cm. The plants in Honduras use, at the most, a head loss of 20 cm. The testing of up to 25 cm head loss allowed for an analysis of even higher flow rates, in case there was little to no deviation at the lower flow rates<<<<intert image here.

Figure 2: Flow rate vs. Headloss for 1 m Tube
The head losses were taken from the experiment such that one hole below the base hole was only 1 cm of head loss. The length of the tubes, 44.5 cm and 1 m, were measured. The inner diameter was 1/8 in as given by the manufacturer for the experimental. The correction was applied to this diameter.
