Molecular Weights and “C” Factors<br />

Listed below are the molecular weights, specific heat<br />

ratios, and “C” factors for common gases. This “C”<br />

factor is used in formulas for sizing valves for<br />

gas or vapor service.<br />

On the following pages are published capacity charts<br />

for two common gases, air and natural gas, and for<br />

water. These charts can be used for direct selection<br />

of the safety relief valve orifice required without<br />

calculations. Capacities in these charts are based<br />

upon a process media temperature of 60F , and a<br />

compressibility factor (Z) = 1.0. To determine capacities<br />

at other temperatures, further calculations should be<br />

made using the formulas on Page 16.<br />
