🔍 Key Concepts

• Pressure differential across a filter or strainer • Relationship between flow restriction and pressure drop • What happens to system pressure when a passage becomes blocked vs. open

💭 Think About

• If fluid is flowing normally and the passages inside the strainer become more restricted, what happens to the pressure before and after the strainer? • Which condition (damaged with holes, blocked, perfectly clean, or empty/dry) would cause the greatest resistance to flow? • How would a nearly unobstructed path for fluid affect the pressure difference across the strainer?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare how a blocked (dirty) vs. clean strainer affects resistance to flow • Think about whether a holed strainer would increase or decrease resistance • Consider whether a dry strainer (no fluid) would create a sustained pressure differential during normal operation
