When positive pressure is applied to a standard cubic foot of gas, it is compressed. When a vacuum is applied to a standard cubic foot of gas, it expands. The volume of gas after it is pressurized or rarefied is referred to as its "actual" volume. SCF and ACF for an ideal gas are related in accordance with the combined gas law: [2] [3]
Actual cubic feet per minute (ACFM) is a unit of volumetric flow. It is commonly used by manufacturers of blowers and compressors. [1] This is the actual gas delivery with reference to inlet conditions, whereas cubic foot per minute (CFM) is an unqualified term and should only be used in general and never accepted as a specific definition without explanation.
An actual volume can be converted to a standard volume using the following equation: [6] [7] V s = V a × F p × F t × (F pv) 2. Where, V s: standard volume V a: actual volume (sometimes shown as V r for registered volume) F p: pressure factor (sometimes shown as P m for pressure multiplier)
The definition of Standard Temperature in Europe is most often 0°C (32°F). However, in the United States numerous basis are used. Common Standard Temperetures include: 32°F, 60°F (15.5°C), 68°F (20°C), 70°F (21.1°C), 77°F (25°C) and 95°F (25°C). The definition of Standard Relative Humidity is often 0% or dry for non-air applications.
Flux F through a surface, dS is the differential vector area element, n is the unit normal to the surface. Left: No flux passes in the surface, the maximum amount flows normal to the surface.
There are other definitions of standard gas conditions used in the USA besides 60 °F and 1 atmosphere. That being understood: 1 Nm 3 of any gas (measured at 0 °C and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure) equals 37.326 scf of that gas (measured at 60 °F and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure).
Standard cubic centimeters per minute (SCCM) is a unit used to quantify the flow rate of a fluid. 1 SCCM is identical to 1 cm³ STP /min. Another expression of it would be Nml/min. Another expression of it would be Nml/min.
The resulting equations for density, momentum and energy can be manipulated into a pressure equation, giving the well-known sound wave equation. Shallow water equations (SW): Consider a flow near a wall where the wall-parallel length-scale of interest is much larger than the wall-normal length-scale of interest. Start with the EE.
