Re: [foxboro] Natural Gas Temp & Pressure compensation

At the temps & pressures you're talking about, the scaling is linear.
Temperature is direct, pressure is inverse. Just be sure to use absolute
temperature (deg F + 460) and PSIA.

compensated flow =3D flow * (T-act/T-ref) * (P-ref/P-act)

T-ref is usually 60 F & P-ref is usually 0 psig (14.7 psia)

Subject: [foxboro] Natural Gas Temp & Pressure compensation

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone had the formula in their back pocket for =

taking a DP on a natural gas line and converting it to a compensated
flow.

I have a DP orifice plate that is scaled from 0-235 " water.    This, I =

am told corresponds to  0-2000 CFM.
I have a PT scaled from 0-130 PSI
I have a TT scaled from 0-300 deg F.

So a DP of 100" H2O at 80 Deg F and 100 PSI is ??????SCFM.

So can one of you Chemical Engineers lend a hand?

Thanks,
David
