Flow Rate Curve

The equation of the flow rate curve (in liters per minute) versus the
flowmeter flow height (in mm) established at standard Millipore
temperature and pressure is:
Q = Ah² + Bh + C
Ref
Where:
Q : Volumetric flow rate (in liters per minute) at the standard pressure
Ref
and temperature (1000 mbars, 20°C)
h: Flowmeter float height (in mm)
A, B and C: Constants specific to each calibration kit

Calculating the Flow Rate

Below is an example of a typical calculation:
Your measurement conditions:
■ Atmospheric pressure: 1030 mbars
■ Temperature: 15°C
Determine the air density ratio:
Where:
D : 1000
