The maximum flow rate indicated refers to natural gas with a density of 0.81 kg/m

or to the air with a density of 1.24 kg/m

at 15 °C under normal conditions. In the case of different types of gases, a conversion of the volume flow according to the
equation shown below is carried out.
The flow coefficient of the valve K
G
of the FRM is equal to the flow rate with the actuator fully open, with an absolute inlet
pressure of p
u, abs.
= 2,01325 bar and an absolute outlet pressure of p
d, abs.
= 1.01325 bar. The value K
G
refers to natural gas
with a relative density of d = 0.64, corresponding to a standard density of p
n
= 0.83 kg/m
3
and and a gas inlet temperature
of t = 15 °C
The mass flow through a nozzle increases with a constant inlet pressure and a decrease in pressure after the nozzle, until it
reaches its maximum when the pressure ratio is critical and thereafter remains constant. With constant outlet pressure, an
additional increase in inlet pressure causes an increase in the mass flow through the regulator. For this reason, to calculate
the mass flow that flows through a nozzle, two areas are distinguished:
a) sub-critical or critical relative pressure
b) super-critical relative pressure
