Pressure Loss
Pressure loss in Tek-Cor 1100A Coriolis Mass Flow meter can be checked on the following
Pressure Loss Charts (including pressure loss, flow, and viscosity parameters).
When the viscosity is between two adjacent pressure loss lines, the pressure loss can be
calculated with following formula:
