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 />
