Gas mass velocity in separator
Input(s)
w: Mass Mass Flow Velocity \(\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{h} \mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)\)
\(\mathrm{d}\): Internal Diameter of Separator (ft)
F: Fraction of Area Available for Gas (fraction)
Output(s)
m: Mass Rate \((\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{h})\)
Formula(s)
\[
\mathrm{m}=0.785 * \mathrm{w} *\left(\mathrm{~d}^{2}\right) * \mathrm{~F}
\]
