I now went a little bit further and developed an equation for "gas volume per minute" for any given piston diameter for this case scenario.
Vcmf(D,RPM) = 1,1434241355938155786971828180212*D2*RPM = 1,1434*D2*RPM
where D is piston diameter in inches.
Good morning!
Wow, I did not expect that someone will give so much help to a stranger on the internet. Thank You so much! I really appreciate Your time spent on this. Any way I can give back to You? (tipjar, anything?)
After going through the spreadsheet, I now understand how the calculations...
Thank You for the explanation.
I can't operate with numbers. I have to come up with the equation that gives SCFM as an output.
The client wants to change cold ends from 1,625" to 1,25" on 901-01966 ICP-200 pump.
It seemed logical to me that this will change SCFM output. However, the equation...
So it does for me. I have no idea how he came up with this and he is no longer working here. I'll try to contact him and see what he responds. In the meantime I know that one can obtain CMF with this equation:
CMF = (CID*RPM*VE)/3456, where:
CID: Engines displacement(in^3)
VE: volumetric...
Hi again,
I found out that the value I'm looking for is not exactly the volumetric flow rate... [conehead]
The value I want to find is SCFM (Standard Cubic Feet Minute), which is not the same as volumetric flow rate, as I first thought.
SCFM is not dependant on either temperature or pressure...
General Specs of the Pump:
Pump rotation: Bi-directional
Stroke: 1,375"
Max pump speed: 1200 RPM
Max power output: 200HP
Cold End bore size: 1,25"
Max discharge pressure: 15000psi
On the datasheet for vaporizor used, it states that:
- Gas ρ = 0,072 lb/ft3
- Specific volume = 13,8889 ft3/lb

Hi,
I'm wondering how You can calculate volumetric flow rate (SCFM=ft2/min) without rotameter installed.
We need to change from 1,625" to 1,25" Cold End. This will change the volumetric flow rate.
Liquid nitrogen is pumped by a hydraulic pump to a vaporizor. How can I calculate gasses...
Hi,
I'm a graduate Mechanical Engineer and currently working on design of finned-tube heat exchanger. (Liquid cooling exhaust gases from diesel engine.)
I found some pre-planning calculations that my previous co-worker did. After reading about heat exchange, I re-arranged and defined some more...
