A 1 3/4-inch handline can flow up to 325 gpm using one firefighter with a 1 1/4-inch smooth bore tip or a fog nozzle. 20. A 2-inch handline can flow up to 400 gpm using two firefighters with high- pressure hose and a 1 1/2-inch tip at 50 psi NP. 21.

In order to determine the Flow Rate represented as Q, we must define both the volume V and the point in time it is flowing past represented by t, or Q = V/t. Additionally Flow rate and velocity are related by the equation Q = Av where A is the cross-sectional area of flow and v is its average velocity.
Here's the color breakdown a blue topped fire hydrant will have a water pressure of more than 1500 gallons per minute. Green is 1000-1499 gallons per minute, orange is 500-999 gallons per minute, and red is less than 500 gallons per minute.

A fire hydrant flow test is performed for a specific area by using three fire hydrants. A pressure gauge is placed on one hydrant to record the static pressure; this is hydrant #1. The remaining two hydrants are opened to allow water to flow out as fast as possible.
Take a static pressure reading. Measure the inside diameter of the outlet nozzle or hydrant outlet where flow occurs. A hydrant's inside diameter is usually 4\u201d. Field personnel should slowly open each fire hydrant, one at a time, to avoid pressure surges.
Remove the nozzle cap of the pressure hydrant and add the pressure gauge to its outlet. Open its valve completely and gather static pressure reading (Water should not be flowing). Then, open the flowing hydrant's valve. Always be cautious of nearby obstacles and traffic.
Flush the residual hydrant to remove any sediment and attach a nozzle cap with a gauge to the hydrant's outlet. Slowly release the main valve until air is vented. Take a static pressure reading. Measure the inside diameter of the outlet nozzle or hydrant outlet where flow occurs.
