 Mass Flow 
By compensating for variations in fluid temperature and pressure, Mass Flow is used to obtain a more 
precise fluid flow measurement from an orifice plate developing a differential pressure. The output CVn 
OV is mass flow and is calculated from the following formula for U.S. Units Of Measurement: 
MF = FACTOR 1 x SQRT [DP INPUT x (PRESSURE INPUT+14.7) / (TEMPERATURE INPUT + 459)] 
where 
FACTOR 1 is calculated by user 
DP INPUT is differential pressure in inches of water  
PRESSURE INPUT is in PSIG  
TEMPERATURE INPUT is in °F 
Or, Mass flow is calculated from the following formula for International Units Of Measurement: 
MF = FACTOR 1 x .569 x SQRT [DP INPUT x (PRESSURE INPUT +101.4)/(TEMPERATURE INPUT + 273)] 
where 
FACTOR 1 is calculated by user 
DP INPUT is differential pressure in KPASCALS 
PRESSURE INPUT is in KPASCALS 
TEMPERATURE INPUT is in °C 
Table 4-37 describes the Mass Flow prompts. See Table 4-2 for additional prompts.
