I'm not sure under which section this should go, but the application is engineering. I have a calibration problem that I'm trying to figure out:
I have a digital flowmeter that measures the flowrate of air and gives a SL/min (litres/minute at stansard conditions) value. The thing is I want to measure the flowrate of CO2 with that same device (it takes too long to acquire one that is set up for CO2). Is there a conversion factor I can use to convert SL/min (air) into SL/min (CO2)?
I tried ratios of densities and also molar masses, but I don't get a result that looks reasonable.
Any ideas?
Thanks
