Gas Velocity Calculator: Elevation P Essure C Atmospheri

This spreadsheet calculates gas velocity based on user-input values for flow rate, pressure, pipe dimensions and other factors. It accounts for temperature, compressibility and altitude based on industry standards. The spreadsheet shows the relationship between gas velocity, flow rate and pressure - as pressure or flow increase, velocity decreases, and vice versa. It is intended to supplement a welding parameters form and ensure values meet safety standards.
