I was looking at the problem backwards in hopes that somebody knew a formula for flow rate off hand. My CFM value is fixed at 2 CFM and my pipe size at the moment is 1". Now I just want to find the pressure I need to drop the 120PSI to using a regulator in order to get the 2 CFM through an...

From where and how did you derive that Velocity = sqrt (2*Pressure/density) ?

There is a gauge a negligible distance away from where the air outlet will be that reads 110 PSI. I'm basically just trying to find a relationship between pressure (in PSI), pipe diameter (where the air will exit into the chamber) and CFM. I know that Q (CFM) = Area (ft^2) * Velocity...

I'm currently designing an air filtration system for the filling compartment of a beverage filler. The goal is to introduce HEPA filtered air at a rate of 2 CFM through a circular pipe opening with diameter of x inches. The air is provided by a compressed air system at a pressure of 120PSI (I...
