Christoph said:I have a fluid delivery system that controls flow in Pounds\Min.
I need to convert that to GSM.(grams\meter sq.) Any math wizz's
out there have a nifty formula for that??? Using an A-B SLC 5/05
Thanks for you time.
Christoph said:The control of flow in "Grams/Meter" sq has been used in this industry
long before I came here.It is a measure of fluid applied to a moving
web it's moisture content is measured with an Infrared scanner. With
the solids known of the fluid we can control our dry coat weight on the sheet.
In that case it would be Lbs/Min times 453.6 grams per pound divided by [web width in meters times web speed in meters per minute]It is a measure of fluid applied to a moving web
True. But if you know your flow rate in lbs/min. the solids of the liquid,bioplc said:"grams/square meter is a pressure."
pressure = force/area ???
That looks like it will work, going to plug it in and try it.Tom Jenkins said:Try this:
Flow rate (lb/min) x 454(grams/lb) / (Webspeed(meter/min) x Webwidth(meter)) = ApplicationRate(grams/meter²)
