CV Calculator for Valve Sizing

This calculator can be used to help select a valve with enough flow capacity for a given application. The valve flow coefficient (Cv) is a convenient way to represent flow capacity of a valve across a range of fluids and process parameters.

Gas pressure units are in absolute pressure, except for PSIG.

P1 → [Valve] → P2

Inlet Pressure → Valve → Outlet Pressure

Safe Product Selection

When selecting a product, the total system design must be considered to ensure safe, trouble-free performance. Function, material compatibility, adequate ratings, proper installation, operation, and maintenance are the responsibilities of the system designer and user.
