The mass flow rate of a crosshead piston engine can be calculated using the following formula:
– ṁ = Mass Flow Rate (in kilograms per second, kg/s)
– A = Cross-Sectional Area through which the fluid or gas flows (in square meters, m²)
– V = Velocity of the fluid or gas (in meters per second, m/s)
– ρ = Density of the fluid or gas (in kilograms per cubic meter, kg/m³)
