Flow Equations
Flow Rate (Q) Calculation

A: Area
C: Discharge coefficient
d: density ( water density = 1000kg/m³)
D: Diameter
g: Gravity 9.8 m/s²
K: Flow coefficient (Kv)(Cv)
Q: Flow rate
Qw: Water Flow rate equivalence
SG: Specific gravity (1 for water)
v: Velocity
Δh: Head Drop (high of fluid)
ΔP: Pressure Drop

Flow rate equations
Q = C· SQRT ( 2 · g ·Δh ) · A

Flow rate equations
Q = C· SQRT ( 2 · g ·Δh ) · ( D)² · π / 4

Flow rate equations
Q = C· SQRT ( 2 · ΔP / d ) · A

Flow rate equations
Q=C· SQRT ( 2 · ΔP / d ) · (D)² · π/4

Flow rate equations
Q=K· SQRT (ΔP/SG)
K = Cv, when K is referenced in [gpm] [psi] units.
K = Kv, when K is referenced in [m³/h] [bar] units.

Flow rate equations
Qw=Q· SQRT ( 1 / SG )

Flow rate equations
Qw=Q· SQRT ( 1000 / d )
