How To Convert Kvs-Value For Water To Kvs For Gas?

AI Thread Summary
To convert Kvs-value for water to Kvs for gas, understanding the flow coefficients for both fluids is essential. The Kvs value is a metric flow coefficient that indicates the flow capacity of a valve, and while the value itself remains constant, the application differs between liquids and gases. The conversion requires specific formulas that account for the differences in fluid properties. Resources like Engineering Toolbox and Wikipedia provide useful information on flow coefficients. Proper calculation is key to ensuring accurate conversions for effective instrument performance.

Hello,
for an instrument I have given the Kvs-Value for water and I want to convert it to gas. Can someone help or explain the calculation?
Of course I have the formulas for liquid and for gas KVs-calculation.
How do I convert it?
Thanks for the help

I have no help only a question: what's Kvs value? I have heard the term but don't know what it evaluates
 
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
