Want to do a quick and dirty design for a gravity fed sprinkler system from a pond.

Thank you very much for the information.

I am curious as to the method used to determine the adequacy of the system. Being that I do not know anything about sprinklers and I have not been able to find anything on line, I do not know the math involved in designing the system. If that makes any sense??

Is there a computer program involved?

Otherwise, This helps me out greatly! Thanks again!

:)

Computer programs that design sprinkler systems cost large dollars. No freebies out there. What is out there for free are charts that show friction losses in pipe. You already drew a decent design, so turn it into numbers, that total up all the pressure losses from source to sprinkler heads.
