Volume of fluid displaced for triplex pump

Input(s)

$\mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{L}}$: Piston Diameter (in.)

$\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{s}}$: Stroke Length (in.)

$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{v}}$: Volumetric Efficiency (unitless)

Output(s)

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}$: Volume of Fluid Displaced (bbl/stroke)

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{s}} * \mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{L}}^{2} * \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{v}}}{42 * 98.03} $$
