Undergrad Air Flow Formula Help: Calculating % of Volume Lost in 2.8 Seconds
I think constant mass will work for me also. Outside presure on container will be Atmospheric pressure, inside will be atmospheric plus .216 psi. Thanks again guys- Mark Selvey

Undergrad Air Flow Formula Help: Calculating % of Volume Lost in 2.8 Seconds
Maybe a better description will help. This involves a machine that is used to detect a leak in a container on a production line. The machine needs to have test parameters ( Pass/Fail ) setup in order to detect holes. The standard is the machine must detect a .010 dia hole. It has a...- Mark Selvey

Boneh3ad. No air is added to the container after the target pressure is reached. When the orifice is open, the pressure will drop along with volume dropping.- Mark Selvey

Undergrad Air Flow Formula Help: Calculating % of Volume Lost in 2.8 Seconds
Bruce The container is pressurized to a target of 6" WC. Once the transducer sees the target has been reached, the fill valve closes and the orifice opens. 2.8 seconds later, the transducer takes another measurement and compares the 2 to determine pressure drop. My problem is, I do not have...- Mark Selvey

Undergrad Air Flow Formula Help: Calculating % of Volume Lost in 2.8 Seconds
Hello New to the forum and have a fairly simple problem. I am looking for help in building an equation for volume lost in a container. Example. Known variables: Container has a volume of 44 fl oz Container will be pressurized to 6" of water column. Container has an orifice with...- Mark Selvey
