Gilles, very interesting.
I would like to make an admission.
In interpreting pressure-flow-restriction graphs and estimating pressure 
drops it is useful to know that flow through a restriction is 
proportional to the square of the pressure drop across it. I earlier 
assumed erroneously that Ohm's law applies with pressure / flow 
equivalent to voltage / current. Pressure-squared / flow comes closer to 
being equivalent to voltage / current.
Cheers,
Jan de Jong
