This document contains calculations for a hose drop calculator. It provides information on oil pressure, viscosity, hose sizes, flow rates, and pressure drops through different sections of supply and return hoses to determine the total pressure required at the source. Key parameters presented include an oil pressure of 2500 psi, viscosity of 33.1 cs, maximum allowed pressure of 1500 psi, and a maximum flow rate of 2 gpm through 0.375 inch supply and 0.5 inch return hoses over 350 feet.
