Critical Velocity Calculator1

This document provides information for calculating critical velocity, critical flowrate, and z-factor for gas flow through tubing. It includes equations for Turner's and Coleman's methods to calculate critical velocity. Inputs provided are pipe diameter, gas properties, pressure, and temperature. The results calculated are the critical velocities by each method and critical flowrates in various units. A z-factor of 0.967 is calculated based on the provided gas gravity, pressures, temperatures, and compositions.
