Project D Wrote:Also, bigger hose = less pressure (Pressure = Force / Area)

The force exerted on a piston (for example) is pressure x area. But in a
hydraulic circuit, the pressure is equal throughout the system (neglecting
pressure drop due to restrictions). Therefore the size of the hose only
affects the pressure drop due to friction, and in this respect, a larger
diameter hose is better than a small diameter hose.

For those who care, pressure drop in the hoses is proportional to :-
Velocity squared / diameter Tongue
