Internal diameter of gas separator

Input(s)

m: Mass Flow Rate (lb/h)(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{h})

Ks\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{s}}: Separator Coefficient (ft/h)(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{h})

F: Fraction of Separator Available for Gas (fraction)

ρ1\rho_{1}: Liquid Density (g/cc)(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cc})

ρg\rho_{\mathrm{g}}: Gas Density (g/cc)(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cc})

Output(s)

d\mathrm{d}: Internal Diameter (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

Formula(s)

d=0.0188(mF Ks)0.5(ρlρgρg)0.25\mathrm{d}=\frac{0.0188 *\left(\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{F} * \mathrm{~K}_{\mathrm{s}}}\right)^{0.5}}{\left(\frac{\rho_{\mathrm{l}}-\rho_{\mathrm{g}}}{\rho_{\mathrm{g}}}\right)^{0.25}}
