Hydraulic elements in series

Storyboard

When hydraulic elements are connected in series, the flow remains constant, but each hydraulic element experiences a pressure drop. The sum of these pressure drops equals the total drop, and therefore, the total hydraulic resistance is equal to the sum of all individual hydraulic resistances. On the other hand, the inverse of the total hydraulic conductivity is equal to the sum of the inverses of the hydraulic conductivities.
