Does anyone know an easy formula I can use to convert pounds per hour of dry air at sea level to cubic feet per minute?

    flow

    I'm a flunked out retired fitter not an engineer. My take is standard air as defined by ASHRAE is air at 29.92 in. Hg , 69ºF and dry has a density of .075 Lbs./Cu.Ft. so if you divide your Lbs./Hr. by 60 you will have Lbs./Min. divide that by .075 and you will have

    Cu. Ft./Min.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.
