Conversion between cubic and square units

The flow rate of the new hydrogen compressor is 15 m3/min. What is the volume of hydrogen processed by this compressor in standard cubic meters per minute?
The standard value refers to the value under standard conditions (0°C, 101.325 KPa); it can be converted accordingly
Temperature and pressure are also needed: P*V/t = P1*V1/T1
Given conditions: The compressor model is DW-15(24-98)-X; the discharge pressure is 9.8 MPa, and the suction pressure is 2.4 MPa. How to calculate it?
Is it calculation software? No need for manual calculations
135 Nm3 – I’m not sure if that’s correct, but it’s roughly that amount
Formula: Actual flow rate = P3 * SQRT(C1 / (273 + P2) * (P1 + 101) / C2)
Parameters: C1: Design temperature (K); C2: Design pressure (KPa); P1: Actual pressure (KPa); P2: Actual temperature (°C); P3: Flow rate before compensation. In fact, the formulas for temperature and pressure compensation may vary among different manufacturers

Could you write down the calculation formula? Thank you
Liaifeng has already provided the calculation formula; it essentially involves multiplying the flow rate indicated on the nameplate by the actual pressure
Convert using the gas equation of state
First, you need to determine what type of flow meter you have Under normal circumstances, mass flow meters calculate the flow rate based on standard conditions; if AspenPlus is not used, a heat exchanger can be employed to carry out the calculation.
