Sometimes a feller just has to guess about a term, then hope someone else, a faithful reader maybe, will know the real PSI. <br />Thanks, PT--see ya SOON ☺!Marlys Hesch Sebaskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12228387908550622919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4016824573429623247.post-64581246248413711092014-01-28T11:47:39.464-06:002014-01-28T11:47:39.464-06:00Not that I'm the mother of a measurement engin...Not that I'm the mother of a measurement engineer or anything, but from my extensive research, I think feet of head is an old-fashioned measure of water pressure - what we would now call PSI. It measures the force of the water on wheel that turns the grindstone so the more force, the more power to the wheel and therefore the greater the capacity of the mill. Of course, if a feller knew an actual measurement engineer, she could probably get a more coherent explanation. But at any rate, this explanation seems to make more sense as to what is coming AT the mill rather than what is behind it. Yah?<br /><br />Love - PTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
