Fluidat On the Net: Calculating Flow Rates & Conversion Factors for Flow Meters
Online Flow and Physical Properties Calculations
Discover FLUIDAT® on the Net, the free calculation tool for 1800 gases and liquids!
FLUIDAT® is a collection of routines to calculate the physical properties of gases and liquids, available through the FLUIDAT on the Net website.
FLUIDAT utilizes intrinsic fluid data such as molecular mass, critical properties, boiling point, and dipole moment.
Fluid properties can be calculated at a certain temperature and pressure. Additionally, properties of mixtures consisting of up to 15 components can be derived. Over 1800 fluids are available in the FLUIDAT software, mainly hydrocarbons complemented with the most well-known inorganic fluids (gases) such as air, argon, and helium.
The search can be performed by chemical formula, CAS Registry Number, or the name of the fluid.
The most comprehensive and accurate database of its kind is also available as a free online calculation tool for Bronkhorst and Mass Flow Online customers who want to determine conversion factors when using their gas flow meter for a different gas (or gas mixture) than the instrument was calibrated for.
This online calculation tool, Fluidat on the Net, is also very useful for physicists or chemists who want to calculate the properties of a gas or liquid or consult the vapor pressure curve.
