Is the flow rate a standard-condition value or an actual value?
Thread Content
I’m sorry, I’m a beginner – I have a question. Is the flow rate obtained from the tower or Flash calculations based on standard conditions or actual conditions? For example, if the pressure in the tower is 13 bar, are the parameters such as the volumetric flow rate and mass flow rate at the top of the tower based on standard conditions or under a pressure of 13 bar?
The mass flow rate definitely has nothing to do with the state; it’s simply the amount of mass that is produced per hour. As for the gas flow rate, I’m not sure about it; looking forward to an answer!
For volumetric flow rate, check the full name; Actual Rate and Standard Vapor Rate refer to the values under actual conditions and standard conditions respectively
The flow rate read directly should be the volumetric flow rate under the actual temperature and pressure conditions! A mass flow meter calculates the flow rate based on density and volume, so it is independent of temperature and pressure! Therefore, mass flow meters are generally very expensive! :)
How is the temperature determined under standard conditions? It doesn’t seem to have any clear regulations. http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-654045-1-1.html
