This document calculates pressure drops and flow rates for a hose system with three sections. It provides specifications for oil viscosity, hose diameters, lengths, and flow velocities. Pressure drops are calculated for each hose section and round trip. Flow is laminar in the third section and transitional in the first section for both supply and return hoses.
