Pressure drop per length of the adsorption unit

Input(s)

B: Constant (dimensionless)

C: Constant (dimensionless)

$\mu$: Viscosity $(\mathrm{cP})$

$v_{g}$: Gas Velocity $(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{m})$

$\boldsymbol{\rho}_{g}$: Gas Density $\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)$

Output(s)

$(\boldsymbol{\Delta P} / \boldsymbol{L})$: Pressure Drop per Length $(\mathrm{psi} / \mathrm{ft})$

Formula(s)

$$ \left(\frac{\Delta P}{\mathrm{~L}}\right)=\mathrm{B} * \mu * \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{g}}+\mathrm{C} * \rho_{\mathrm{g}} *\left(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}\right) $$
