    ISA Control valve sizing equations

    Hi Danschwind. I interpreted it is kg/mol. I could be wrong but screenshot attached. https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=f749bde2-c560-419d-8a95-3df74e010381&file=ISA_symbols.JPG

    ISA Control valve sizing equations

    Hi All. I am busy using the ISA equations for sizing a control valve. I know my mass flow rate and I have my density, compressibility factor and molecular mass values. However, when I use Eq. 9 and 10, I get very different results. Cv 0.39 and Cv 12.38 for each equation respectively. I have...
