Flow Rate Unit

Dear All,

What is purpose for specifying flow rate with "Sm3/Hr Cold Water equivalent "

The fluid is Bitumen Emulsion from production Wells .

Does "S "-implies standard conditions,

Regards

Jose

You're sure that's not 5 m3/hr ?

Normal m3/time unit is a gas mass flow unit, which can vary from industry to industry. The natural gas uses a pressure of one bar (14.5 psia) and 0° C for 'normal'.

But I hadn't heard of normal flow for liquids. Maybe it's an industry equivalent of the volume or mass of water even though the fluid is an emulsion. Please let us know when you do find out.

May I appologize but m3 is a VOLUME unit not a MASS unit. In the SI mass unit is the "kg".
