Hi
Thanks Rick. I was using an extreme example to test theory but even with a .236" ID tube 24 " long at 7" vertical rise with .748" well diameter you end up with delta p of 9.39 WC". I am going to test this out in the weekend so will let you know.
Thanks

Grant,

Can you please point me to the spreadsheet you are using.

Thanks

Hi Rick
Was using the 86rocco sheet Inclined Manometer Compensation maybe I was misinterpreting some of it. I have rebuilt my inclined manometer and for what ever reason with 24" long 7" vertical rise with a .236ID tube and a .748 ID well I have ended up with the bench calibrated and only had to move the incline up 1" to achieve it so my clutching at straws is over for the meantime anyway. I am now trying to get a steer on the remote testing as per another post can you help?
Thanks
Regards
Grant

Hi
My new 7" Internal Plates arrived today so I have now tested against 28" calibration plates.
Calibration Plate 100@28" 150 @ 28" 200 @ 28"
200cfm @7" inside 106 @ 28" 151 @ 28" 197 @ 28"
150cfm @7" inside 108 @ 28" 151 @ 28"
100cfm @7" inside 106 @ 28"
Had to test the 100 against 100 at lower pressure and calc flow at 28"
So I am pretty pleased thanks to everybody who assisted in getting this sorted out.

Grant,

It is starting to look good but not to be anal but the 100CFM numbers do not look good to me, with the 200 CFM @ 7" plate in the bench this puts your delta P off by about .250" and with the 150 CFM @ 7" plat in the Delta P is off my .500". Are you measuring the rise on the incline or using a % scale"
