Configuration
Mass/volume and time conversion example:
To find the Base per Custom relationship for a custom unit of standard millions of standard cubic
feet per day (mmcfd) and a base unit of standard cubic feet per minute (StdCuft/min), input the
following:
Custom Unit = mmcfd
Base Unit = StdCuft/min
Because:
1 mmcf (Millions of Standard Cubic Feet) = 1000000 StdCuft (Standard Cubic Feet) and
1 d (Day) = 1440 min (Minutes)
Then:
1 mmcfd = x x = 694.444 StdCuft/min
1 mmcfd = 694.444 StdCuft/min
Therefore:
Base per Custom = = = 694.444
Figure 3-28. Flow rate custom units - mass/volume and time conversion example
Under the Custom Units Setup heading, the user may configure a custom unit for the flow rate
measurement. Custom units allow the flow rate to be displayed in units of measure that are not
standard in the 3051S MultiVariable.
