SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies the meanings of G and γ in the context of volume flow rate calculations. G represents the weight flow rate, measured in lbf/s or N/s, while γ denotes the specific weight of the fluid, calculated as γ = ρ⋅g, with units in lbf/ft³ or N/m³. These definitions are crucial for accurate fluid dynamics analysis and engineering applications.
