Calculate CV Flow Coefficient





Formula

To calculate the CV Flow Coefficient (\(Cv\)):

\[ Cv = Q \times \sqrt{\frac{SG}{P}} \]

What is CV Flow?

A CV flow, more commonly known as the coefficient of flow, is a measure of the ability of a fluid to flow through a valve at a certain pressure drop. It helps in determining the flow capacity of a valve and is crucial in various engineering and fluid dynamics applications.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Cv = 100 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.8}{2}} = 100 \times \sqrt{0.4} \approx 63.25 \]

The CV Flow Coefficient is approximately 63.25.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Cv = 150 \times \sqrt{\frac{1.2}{3}} = 150 \times \sqrt{0.4} \approx 94.87 \]

The CV Flow Coefficient is approximately 94.87.
