What is normal flow rate?

Normal flow rate is 1 atmosphere (101.3 kPa) or 14.696 psi at 32 0F (0 0C). The actual flow rate is the actual volume of fluid that passes a given point based on the given pressure and temperature of the process.

How to Calculate Average Velocity of Fluid?

Average Velocity of Fluid calculator uses Fluid Average Velocity = Volume Flow Rate/Pipe Cross Sectional Area to calculate the Fluid Average Velocity, The Average Velocity of Fluid formula is defined as a measure of the mean speed at which fluid particles travel along a flow path. It is calculated by dividing the total volume flow rate of the fluid by the cross-sectional area through which the fluid is moving. Fluid Average Velocity is denoted by V_avg symbol.
