Enter the volume flow rate (ml/s) and the maximum velocity (cm/s) into the ERO Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the ERO.
ERO Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the ERO.
ERO = VFR / Vm
Variables:
- ERO is the ERO (cm^2)
- VFR is the volume flow rate (ml/s)
- Vm is the maximum velocity (cm/s)
To calculate the ERO, divide the volume flow rate by the maximum velocity.
How to Calculate ERO?
The following steps outline how to calculate the ERO.
- First, determine the volume flow rate (ml/s).
- Next, determine the maximum velocity (cm/s).
- Next, gather the formula from above = ERO = VFR / Vm.
- Finally, calculate the ERO.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
volume flow rate (ml/s) = 30
maximum velocity (cm/s) = 20
ERO = VFR / Vm = ?
