PRESSURE DROP (millibar)

Pressure Drop Formula
Pressure Drop Correction Factor
ms = 12 kv P1 1-5.67 (0.42 -x)2
For finer mesh screens that are backed with a perforated sheet, multiply
the pressure drops shown above by the following ms = Mass Flowrate
40 mesh x 1.2
kv = Flow Co-efficient
60 mesh x 1.4
x = Pressure Drop ratio P1 - P2

100 mesh x 1.7
P1 = Upstream pressure in bar absolute
200 mesh x 2.05
300 mesh x 2.5 P2 = Down Stream pressure in bar absolute
