Volumetric Flow When outlet pressure is lower or equal to vapor


pressure use: ΔPs = P1 – [0.96 – 0.28 (Pv / Pc)] Pv
Cv = q (Gf /ΔP)0.5 (5-4)
Flow by Weight
(5-5)
Gf = specific gravity @ flowing temperature (water = 1 @ 60°F)
P1 = absolute inlet pressure, psia
SUBCRITICAL FLOW
Is if ΔP is less than
FL
2 (ΔPs)
CRITICAL FLOW
Occurs when ΔP is more
than FL
2 (ΔPs)
ΔPs = Maximum ΔP for sizing.
Use: P1 – Pv when outlet pressure
is higher than vapor
pressure.
