Superficial Gas Velocity Calculator:
Enter the values of Volumetric flow rate Q(m3/s & Cross-sectional Area A(m2) to determine the value of uperficial Gas Velocity Us(m/s) .
Superficial Gas Velocity Formula:
The Superficial Gas Velocity Us(m/s) in meter per second is equal to the Volumetric flow rate Q(m3/s) in meter cubic per second is divided by the Cross-sectional Area A(m2) in meter square.
The Formula of Superficial Gas Velocity can be writtern as,
Us(m/s) = Q(m3/s) / A(m2)
Here,
Us(m/s) = Superficial Gas Velocity in meter per second
Q(m3/s) = Volumetric flow rate in meter cubic per second
A(m2) = Cross-sectional Area in meter square
Calculation for Superficial Gas Velocity:
1)Calculate the Superficial Gas Velocity and given for Volumetric flow rate = 40m3/s , Cross-sectional Area = 8m2.
Solution
Us = Q / A
Us = 40 / 8
Us = 5m/s.
2)Calculate the Cross-sectional Area and given for Volumetric flow rate = 40m3/s , Superficial Gas Velocity = 5m/s.
Solution
Us = Q / A
5 = 40 / A
A = 8m2.
