CV FACTOR vs WATER PRESSURE DROP

CV FACTOR:

The ¯ow rate in gallons per minute (gpm) through a piping component when the pressure drop (DP) in pounds per square inch (psi) across the component is 1.0 (psi).

Pressure drop (ft-H2O) = 2.31 x psi (pressure drop)

GRAPH EXAMPLE:

DP for 2.0 gpm through a component with a CV of 1.0 is 4.0 psi x 2.31 = 9.24 ft-H2O

FORMULA EXAMPLE:

 

 

 

DP (ft-H2O) =

(gpm)2

x 2.31 =

(2.0)2

x 2.31 = 9.24 ft-H2O

(Cv)2

(1.0)2

TOTAL PRESSURE DROP is the Sum of the pressure drop of all piping and components in the water ¯ow path.
