Tank to Pump

Flashcards

Flashcards are quick-recall drills for the facts and target numbers behind the panel — nozzle pressures, friction-loss behavior, elevation costs, tank math, and the common myths. They use spaced repetition, so cards you know come back later and cards you miss come back sooner.

A starter deck is free; the full set of decks is part of Pro (see Account & Progress). All card numbers come from the same formulas the simulator and calculators use.

The decks

DeckWhat it covers
Five Pump MythsThe misconceptions experienced operators repeat — and the corrections that make the panel make sense.
Nozzle PressuresThe tip pressure each nozzle type is built around — the numbers your pump pressure starts from.
Friction Loss & The PanelWhy the hose eats pressure, what elevation and appliances cost, and where the gauge really reads.
Water Supply & TankTank water as a countdown, the floor on a weak hydrant, and serving two lines from one pump.

How a study session works

  1. Pick a deck.
  2. Each card shows its front (a question or cue). Think of your answer.
  3. Click Flip to reveal the back (the answer).
  4. Rate yourself: Got it or Missed it.
  5. A counter shows your place ("Card 3 of 8").

Spaced repetition then schedules each card based on how you rated it — cards you got are pushed further out, cards you missed return soon. The app only shows you the cards that are due, so you spend your time where it helps most.

When you finish what's due, you'll see a wrap-up ("Reviewed 8 cards. Nice work." or "All caught up on this deck"). You can also choose to review the whole deck again regardless of the schedule.

Saving your progress

  • As a guest: your review schedule is saved in your current browser.
  • Signed in: your schedule syncs across devices, so your "due" cards follow you wherever you study — and any practice you did as a guest carries over when you sign in.
