Gas Flow Calculator. In systems with vacuum pumps, blowers, compressors, and heat exchangers, air pressure and temperature are constantly changing, which means the actual volume flow is changing. This makes the specification of volume flow particularly prone to error and misinterpretation.
The flow testing is done utilizing water as a fluid media and is a direct statement of the gallons of water flowed per minute with a 1 psig pressure differential across the valve/connection unit.

Rotameters for measurement of air or other gas flows must be used for the conditions for which they are calibrated. Typically they are calibrated for the following: • Air Flow • Outlet Conditions–147 p. sig @ 70ºF Rotameters can be calibrated for other gas flows or other outlet pressure conditions.

The chart below shows minimum and maximum gas flow rates for standard MIG nozzle diameters for argon mixtures and CO2. The most common metals welded with the MIG process include mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Each requires a different flow rate depending on the nozzle diameter, travel speed, the degree of oxides or mill scale on the mat...
Adjusting the shielding gas flow rate is relatively straightforward. Every gas regulator has a single valve that lets you modify the flow rate. Standard gas regulators have two gauges. One shows the pressure in the gas bottle measured in PSI, and another displays the gas flow rate in cubic feet per hour (“CFH”). You release gas from the bottle by o...
The minimum shielding gas flow rate depends on the welded material and the air dynamics around you. For aluminum, you shouldn’t use anything below 20 CFH. But when welding mild steel, you can work well with a shielding gas flow as low as 10 CFH. It’s important to use a higher flow rate if welding outside. But, if you shield the joint appropriately ...
There is a maximum shielding gas flow rate because the overly strong flow can create turbulence and fail to protect the molten metal from atmospheric contamination. Thanks to the venturi effect, the surrounding air around the nozzle’s edge gets sucked into the shielding gas envelope if the flow rate is too high. So, the maximum flow rate depends on...
The table below summarizes the information we discussed so far to help you set the shielding gas flow rate depending on the welded material. Note that the chart provides estimates. The best flow rate for your welder depends on joint configuration, welding position, travel speed, wire feeding speed, and material thickness.
Finding the sweet spot is the trick to achieving sufficient shielding gas coverage. You cannot use too low or too high gas flows as both scenarios create problems. We provided some recommendations for starting points, but you will need to practice and tweak your flow rate for your machine and technique. It’s most economical to use the least amount ...
GAS FLOW TABLES POLYETHYLENE PIPE. The flow tables below are reproduced from AS/NZS 5601.1:2013 “Gas installations. Part 1: General installations” and are to be read in conjunction with this Standard.
NOTE: The sizing charts above list the specific pipe sizes required for the amount of BTU’s for a new gas line installations. If you are using an existing gas line you must take into consideration the existing gas line capacities to ensure you will have proper pressure.
