Chapter Three: Overview
The Gas Correction Factor (GCF)
37
Example
Calculate the GCF for a gas mixture of argon (gas 1) flowing at 150 sccm and nitrogen (gas 2)
flowing at 50 sccm, where:
Argon (Ar)
Nitrogen (N
2
)
a
1
=
150
=
0.75
a
2
=
50
=

s
1

1.030
s

d
1
=
1.782 g/l
d
2
=
1.250 g/l
cp
1
=
0.1244 cal/g ° C
cp
2
=
0.2485 cal/g ° C
then:
GCF
M
=
(0.3106) [(0.75)(1.030) + (0.25)(1.000)]
(0.75)(1.782)(0.1244) + (0.25)(1.250)(0.2485)
=
(0.3106) [(0.7725) + (0.25)]
(0.1663) + (0.0777)
=
(0.3106) (1.0225)
0.244
=
0.3176
0.244
GCF
M
= 1.302
How To Read Mass Flow at a Different Reference Temperature
The equations for calculating the GCF assume that the MFC was calibrated at a reference
temperature of 0° C (~273° K). If you want to read the mass flow as if the MFC was calibrated
at a different reference temperature, adjust the calculated GCF value using the following
equation:
Temperature Corrected
GCF
= GCF x

where:
Tx = Reference temperature (° K)
Ts = 273.15° K (~ equal to 0° C)
