Data for Calculation of Flow
The coefficient of flow Cv expresses the rate of flow in gallons per minute at 60F water with a pressure drop of 1 psig across the valve.The Cv coefficients for the various types and sizes shown in the tables, have been determined from actual flow tests.

Note: Kv is the metric equivalent of Cv.
KV = CV x 0.85

For Liquids:



Where QL = Flow in U.S. gallons per minute.
? P = (P1P2) Pressure drop in psi.
GL = Specific gravity of liquid (water = 1 at 60F).

For Gases:




Where Qg = Volumetric flow of gas (SCFH).
Gg = Specific gravity of gas at standard conditions.

(air at atmosphere and 60F = 1)
T = Absolute temperature of gas
(F + 460).

Note: For gas, max. ?P = 1/2 P1, and min.
P2 = 1/2 P1, and P1, P2 are absolute pressures (psia)
