FLUID SS -- Speed of Sound in the Fluid
ENGLSH (Feet per Second)
METRIC (Meters per Second)
Allows adjustments to be made to the speed of sound in the
liquid. If the UNITS value was set to ENGLSH, the entry is in
FPS (feet per second). METRIC entries are made in MPS
(meters per second).
If a fluid was chosen from the FL TYPE list, a nominal value for
speed of sound in that media will be automatically loaded. If
the actual sound speed rate is known for the application fluid
and that value varies from the automatically loaded value, the
value can be revised.
If OTHER was chosen as FL TYPE, a FLUID SS will need to
be entered. A list of alternate fluids and their associated sound
speeds are located in the Appendix at the back of this manual.
FLUID VI -- Absolute Viscosity the Fluid
cps
Allows adjustments to be made to the absolute viscosity of the
liquid.
If a fluid was chosen from the FL TYPE list, a nominal value for
viscosity in that media will be automatically loaded. If the
actual viscosity is known for the application fluid and that value
varies from the automatically loaded value, the value can be
revised.
If OTHER was chosen as FL TYPE, a FLUID VI will need to be
entered. A list of alternate fluids and their associated
viscosities are located in the Appendix at the back of this
manual.
SP GRVTY -- Fluid Specific Gravity Entry
unitless
Allows adjustments to be made to the specific gravity (density)
of the liquid.
