Sizing the Pressure Regulators
Sizing of regulators is usually made on the basis of Cg valve and KGsizing coefficients. Flow rates at fully open
position and various operating conditions are related by the following formulae where:
Q = flow rate in Stm3/h
Pu = inlet pressure in bar (abs)
Pd = outlet pressure in bar (abs).
A> When the Cg and KG values of the regulator are known, as well as Pu and Pd, the flow rate can be calculated
as follows:
A-1in sub critical conditions: (Pu Vice versa, when the values of Pu, Pd and Q are known,the Cg or KG values, and hence the regulator size,
may be calculated using:
B-1 in sub-critical conditions: (Pu

The above formulae are applicable to natural gas having a relative density of 0.61 w.r.t. air and a
regulator inlet temperature of 15C. For gases having a different relative density d and temperature
tuin C, the value of the flow rate, calculated as above, must be multiplied by a correction factor
Fc, as follows:
175.8
S x ( 273.15 + tu)Fc =
in order to get optimal performance, to avoid premature erosion phenomena and to limit noise
emissions, it is recommended to check gas speed at the outlet flange does not exceed the values
of the graph below.

Cg and Kg valve coefficient
Choise of the valve is usually on the basis of Cg valve and Cg flow rate coefficients.Cg coefficient correspondsnumerically to the value of air flow in SCF/H in critical conditions with full open valve operating with an upstream
pressure of 1 psia at a temperature of 15C.KG. coefficient corresponds numerically to the value of natural gas
flow rate in Stm/h in critical conditions with full open valve operating with an upstream pressure of 2 bar abs at a
temperature of 15C. Flow rates at full open position and various working conditions, are bound by the following
formule where:
Pu = inlet pressure in bar (abs) Q = flow rate in Stm/H
Pd = outlet pressure in bar (abs) KG, Cv, Cg = valve coefficent
1 > When the Cg and KG values of the control valve are known, as well as Pu and Pd, the flow rate can be
calculated as follows:
1.1 > in non critical conditions:
1.2 > in critical conditions:
2 > Vice versa, when the values of Pu, Pd and Q are known, calculate the values of Cv, Cg or KG with:
2.2 > in critical conditions: (valid for Pu 2 x Pd)

relative specific gravity of 0,61 compared to air and temperature of 15 C at inlet. For gases with different relative

q = (0.9 Kc) (394.9 x C) P1 A Q = 23.661
The flow rate is calculated by the following formulae:
q = maximum flow rate to be discharged, in Kg/h
Q = maximum flow rate (Stm3/h)
A = minimum area (cm2) (see table)
Kc= outflow coefficient
P1= setting pressure plus a 10% overpressure (bar abs)
T1= temperature in K of the fluid at the valve inlet during
the discarge, reported by user or by designer.
0,9 = safety coefficient
M = molecular mass of the fluid in Kg/Kmol (see table)Z1 = compressibiliti factor of the fluid under the P1
conditions to be considered approximately equal to
one if the actual values is not known.
k=Cp exponent of equation of the isentropic expansion
