  2. Gas venting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_venting

    Substantial amounts of methane-rich gas are trapped and adsorbed within coal formations, and are unavoidably desorbed in association with coal mining. In some cases of sub-surface mining, a formation is permeated with boreholes prior to and/or during extraction work, and the so-called firedamp gases allowed to vent as a safety measure. Also ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

    Accidental release source terms includes mass flow rate equations for non-choked gas flows as well. Orifice plate includes derivation of non-choked gas flow equation. de Laval nozzles are venturi tubes that produce supersonic gas velocities as the tube and the gas are first constricted and then the tube and gas are expanded beyond the choke plane.

  4. Actual cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actual_cubic_feet_per_minute

    Actual cubic feet per minute (ACFM) is a unit of volumetric flow. It is commonly used by manufacturers of blowers and compressors. [1] This is the actual gas delivery with reference to inlet conditions, whereas cubic foot per minute (CFM) is an unqualified term and should only be used in general and never accepted as a specific definition without explanation.

  5. Orifice plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orifice_plate

    Orifice plate showing vena contracta. An orifice plate is a thin plate with a hole in it, which is usually placed in a pipe. When a fluid (whether liquid or gaseous) passes through the orifice, its pressure builds up slightly upstream of the orifice [1] but as the fluid is forced to converge to pass through the hole, the velocity increases and the fluid pressure decreases.

  6. Gas meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

    A gas meter is a specialized flow meter, used to measure the volume of fuel gases such as natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. Gas meters are used at residential, commercial, and industrial buildings that consume fuel gas supplied by a gas utility. Gases are more difficult to measure than liquids, because measured volumes are highly ...

  7. Liquid-to-gas ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-to-gas_ratio

    An important parameter in wet scrubbing systems is the rate of liquid flow. It is common in wet scrubber terminology to express the liquid flow as a function of the gas flow rate that is being treated. This is commonly called the liquid-to-gas ratio (L/G ratio) and uses the units of gallons per 1,000 actual cubic feet or litres per cubic metre ...
