Cyclone Inlet Pressure Calculator
Audit actual cyclone inlet/outlet pressure gauges with independent calibration offsets, retain negative drop evidence; not forward dynamic-head pressure model. Caller independently verifies units, applicability and matching conditions; no operational recipe, safety certification, causal efficacy or legal/resource classification is inferred.
Description
Pressure gauges can carry calibration offsets that change the inferred drop across a cyclone.
Pressure gauges can carry calibration offsets that change the inferred drop across a cyclone.1
This audit applies upstream and downstream offsets separately.
When to use Cyclone Inlet Pressure Calculator
Use this tool to calculate or review the supplied observations under the stated rules. Match completed survey or ledger observations by block, segment or stage and confirm their units and boundaries.
How to use Cyclone Inlet Pressure Calculator and understand its results
- Match completed survey or ledger observations by block, segment or stage and confirm their units and boundaries.
- Enter observedCycloneGaugeInletPa, observedGaugeOutletPa, observedUpstreamGaugeOffsetPa, observedDownstreamGaugeOffsetPa, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read offsetCorrectedCyclonePressureDropPa. Inspect nested result fields where present, and review unknown records separately from known matches.
- Correct any reported input issue and run again. Before using a successful result, check the stated units, signs, reference scope and observation coverage.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| observedCycloneGaugeInletPa | Observed cyclone gauge inlet pa | list of number | Required |
| observedGaugeOutletPa | Observed gauge outlet pa | list of number | Required |
| observedUpstreamGaugeOffsetPa | Observed upstream gauge offset pa | list of number | Required |
| observedDownstreamGaugeOffsetPa | Observed downstream gauge offset pa | list of number | Required |
Use four nonempty aligned finite signed pressure lists. Correct inlet by subtracting its offset, correct outlet likewise, and return corrected inlet minus corrected outlet. Negative drops remain signed.
drop_i=inlet_i−inletOffset_i−outlet_i+outletOffset_i Use the matching field units and the exact boundary, ordering and reference rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| offsetCorrectedCyclonePressureDropPa | Offset corrected cyclone pressure drop pa | list of number |

}Limitations and assumptions
Units, ledger boundaries, survey interpretation and model applicability must be independently established. These summaries do not assign reserve/resource classifications or establish support adequacy, ventilation safety or an operating setting.
Missing required fields, unknown fields, wrong types and violated rules return input issues. Numeric values and outputs must be finite. Lists and matrices must be dense, without missing cells. Numeric lists allow at most 10000 entries; ordinary string lists allow at most 128 strings of 128 UTF-16 units each; numeric matrices allow at most 128 rows and 128 columns, subject to narrower requirements above.
