Slpm to Nlpm Conversion Formula
The following formula is used to convert the flow rate from slpm to nlpm.
NLPM = SLPM * .9318
*Applicable for 0C-20C reference points
Variables:
- NLPM is the flow rate in normal liters per minute
- SLPM is the flow rate in standard liters per minute
| SLPM (Standard L/min) | NLPM (Normal L/min) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 | 0.466 |
| 1 | 0.932 |
| 2 | 1.864 |
| 3 | 2.795 |
| 5 | 4.659 |
| 7.5 | 6.988 |
| 10 | 9.318 |
| 12 | 11.181 |
| 15 | 13.977 |
| 20 | 18.636 |
| 25 | 23.294 |
| 30 | 27.953 |
| 40 | 37.271 |
| 50 | 46.589 |
| 60 | 55.907 |
| 75 | 69.883 |
| 100 | 93.178 |
| 150 | 139.766 |
| 200 | 186.355 |
| 300 | 279.533 |
| * Rounded to 3 decimals. Uses K = T_norm/T_std = 273.15/293.15 ≈ 0.9318. Thus, 1 slpm ≈ 0.9318 nlpm. | |
What is Slpm and Nlpm?
Slpm (standard liters per minute) is a unit of flow rate that refers to the volume of gas that passes a point in one minute under standard temperature and pressure conditions. Nlpm (normal liters per minute) is another unit of flow rate that refers to the volume of gas that passes a point in one minute under normal temperature and pressure conditions. The conversion between these two units is necessary when comparing flow rates measured under different conditions.
How to Calculate Slpm to Nlpm?
The following steps outline how to convert the flow rate from Slpm to Nlpm.
- First, determine the flow rate in slpm.
- Next, determine the temperature at which the flow rate is measured in degrees Celsius (°C).
- Next, determine the pressure at which the flow rate is measured in atmospheres (atm).
- Use the formula from above to calculate the flow rate in nlpm.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
