27.6 m high would water rise in the pipes of a building if the water pressure gauge shows the pressure at the ground floor to be 270 kpa (in m).
How does water pressure increase with height?
- One liter of water weighs one kilogram and has a volume of one thousand centimeters since water is roughly 1000 times heavier than air. Again, if we make a column with a surface area of 1 cm2 and a height of 10 m, we will achieve a water pressure of 1 kg/cm2 (1 bar = 1 kg/cm2) at the bottom.
- Every 10 meters of depth results in an increase of 1bar in water pressure.
- Larger pipes improve the water flow through the line, but they won't boost your water pressure if the water flow isn't sufficient.
- Although municipal water systems offer tremendous pressure, a bigger line won't necessarily be beneficial. Larger lines don't automatically make things stronger or quicker.
