Description

This calculates the total from a user entered flow rate.

References

Kelton calculation reference C153

Options

Flowrates

• Volume
• Mass
• Standard Volume
• Normal Volume
• Energy

This option allows selection of the types of flow rate to be totalised.

Enter elapsed times as

• Duration
• Start and end time

This option is used to select a method of entering the elapsed.

Totals

• Use start and end totals

This option is used to input 2 totals and find the incremental total between the start and end totals.

Calculation

Calculate the elapsed time

If start and end time is selected for the time input:

Where
te	=	The time at the end of the test
ts	=	The time at the start of the test

Calculate the total

The total is calculated by multiplying the flow rate by the duration

Where
t	=	Duration
q	=	Flow rate

Note: The units will correspond to the flow rate, for example a mass value will be returned for a mass flow rate and a volume returned for a volume flow rate.
