Science & Environment
m³/s
m

Flue gas velocity

6.37 m/s

Cross-sectional area

0.785 m²

Volumetric flow rate

5 m³/s

Hourly flow

18,000 m³/hr

Formula and working

V (m/s) = Q (m³/s) ÷ A; A = π × (D/2)²

  1. 1

    Collect the inputs

    Volumetric flow rate = 5 m³/s; Stack diameter = 1 m

  2. 2

    Apply the formula

    V (m/s) = Q (m³/s) ÷ A; A = π × (D/2)²

  3. 3

    Result

    Flue gas velocity = 6.37 m/s
