If you are familiar with electrical circuits, think of voltage as the rated flowrate of your pump, resistance as the equivalent head loss from height length and fittings, and current as your flow rate. The head acting like a resistor controls the flow rate, But just like current in an electrical circuit, the flow rate is constant at any point that you measure it.
You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
