  1. Volume Flow Rate By: Alex Perkins and Mike Witynski

  2. Volume Flow Rate • Volume Flow Rate is the volume of a fluid moved in a given time interval.

  3. Volume Flow Rate • Volume Flow Rate can be measured in m3/ sec, l/ sec, gal/ sec, ft3.

  4. Volume Flow Rate • A common item that uses volume flow rate is a water pipe.

  5. Volume Flow Rate • You would find the VFR by dividing the measured volume of the water moving by the time taken for the water to move through the pipe.

  6. Volume Flow Rate • Something that would control the volume fluid rate is either a sump pump, or any other sort of water pump.

  7. Volume Flow Rate • A supertanker carries 5.6 X 106 of crude oil. The oil is unloaded at an offshore buoy in 35 hours. Find the volume-flow rate in gallons per minute.

  8. Volume Flow Rate • Piston meters, also known as rotary piston or semi-positive displacement meters, are the most common flow measurement devices in the UK and are used for almost all meter sizes up to and including 40 mm (1 1/2"). The piston meter operates on the principle of a piston rotating within a chamber of known volume. For each rotation, an amount of water passes through the piston chamber. Through a and, sometimes, a magnetic drive, a needle dial and odometer type display is advanced.
