question about pipe flow
Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2014 3:50 pm
I know very little about gas so please excuse my ignorance.
I've have looked and tried to figure out my question but can't quite get it.
I have a 2" (2.067 id) pipe with natural gas flowing through it. It is regulated from 5 psi to 1 psi with a fisher cs800 regulator. I need to know what the volumetric flow rate is in CFH. Everytime I try to calculate it I run into the fact I need to know the velocity. However, as I understand it, I need the volumetric flow rate to calculate the velocity.
Thank you for any help you guys can provide.
Also, please no links to the broken gas piping calculation website because it doesn't work.
