How do I simulate a carbon cycle?

Open this page and use the live Fireground Hydraulics tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a carbon cycle from your own measurements.

Friction loss uses the fireground formula FL = C·(Q/100)²·(L/100), added to nozzle pressure and elevation head to give the required pump discharge pressure. Coefficients are standard single-line values. Verify against your department's charts.

Governing equation

PDP = NP + C (\frac{Q}{100})^{2} \frac{L}{100} + 0.434 h = 100 + 25 + 0 = 125 psi

Reading this result: Friction loss is modest here, so nozzle pressure sets most of the 125-psi discharge the pump must supply.
