According to formula 1, the maximum flow rate = 600 x 2 x (0.4 + 0.1) x ————— = 600 [L/min (ANR)]
273 + 20
0.3 + 0.1
Pressure ratio = ————— = 0.8
0.4 + 0.1
Based on Graph (1), it is going to be 0.7 if it is read by the pressure ratio as 0.8 and the flow ratio to be b = 0.3.
Hence, flow rate = Max. flow x flow ratio = 600 x 0.7 = 420 [L/min (ANR)]
(4) Test method
Attach a test equipment with the test circuit shown in Fig. (1) while maintaining the upstream pressure to a
certain level which does not go below 0.3 MPa. Next, measure the maximum flow to be saturated in the first
place, then measure this flow rate at 80%, 60%, 40%, 20% and the upstream and downstream pressure. And
then, obtain the sonic conductance C from this maximum flow rate. In addition, calculate b using each data of
others and the subsonic flow formula, and then obtain the critical pressure ratio b from that average.

2.2 Effective area S

Determination of flow rate characteristics
Equipment standards:

JIS B 8379: Silencer for pneumatics
JIS B 8381-1: Fittings for pneumatics—Part 1: Push-in fittings for thermoplastic resin tubing
JIS B 8381-2: Fittings for pneumatics—Part 2: Compression fittings for thermoplastic resin tubing
(2) Definition of flow rate characteristics
Effective area S
:
The cross-sectional area having an ideal throttle without friction deduced from the calcula-
tion of the pressure changes inside an air tank or without reduced flow when discharging
the compressed air in a choked flow, from an equipment attached to the air tank. This is the
same concept representing the “easy to run through” as sonic conductance C.

Note) Formula for subsonic flow (4) is only applicable when the critical pressure ratio b is the unknown
equipment. In the formula (2) by the sonic conductance C, it is the same formula as when b = 0.5.
(4) Test method
Attach a test equipment with the test circuit shown in Fig. (2) in order to discharge air into the atmosphere
until the pressure inside the air tank goes down to 0.25 MPa (0.2 MPa) from an air tank filled with the
compressed air at a certain pressure level (0.5 MPa) which does not go below 0.6 MPa. At this time, measure
the discharging time and the residual pressure inside the air tank which had been left until it turned to be the
normal values to determine the effective area S, using the following formula. The volume of an air tank should
be selected within the specified range by corresponding to the effective area of an equipment for test. In the
case of JIS B 8379, the pressure values are in parentheses and the coefficient of the formula is 12.9.

2.3 Flow coefficient Cv factor
The United States Standard ANSI/(NFPA)T3.21.3: R1-2008R: Pneumatic fluid power—Flow rating test
procedure and reporting method for fixed orifice components

conducted by the test circuit analogous to ISO 6358.

Test conditions are < P1 + Pa = 6.5 ± 0.2 bar absolute, T1 = 297 ± 5K, 0.07 bar ≤ ∆P � 0.14 bar.
This is the same concept as effective area A which ISO 6358 stipulates as being applicable only when the
pressure drop is smaller than the upstream pressure and the compression of air does not become a problem.
