Low pressure - high flow
Posted: Sat Dec 10, 2011 2:42 am
I have an application which requires a high flow at low pressure.
The application requires approximately 100 cfm at between 10 - 15 psi.
There is another application that requires 200 cfm at the same pressure.
Is it even possible to get such flows a t low pressure?
The 100cfm application would be connected to half inch pipe and the 200cfm to 1 inch pipe.
Is flow not related to pressure....I mean can you not achieve more flow through a given orifice if you increase pressure
Any help would be appreciated.
