Static-Flow Characteristics of Single and Two-Stage Spring-Loaded Gas Pressure Regulators

A theoretical investigation of greater completeness than is usually presented has been made of gas pressure regulators. Emphasis has been placed on the application to their design. The analysis is summarized in graphical form in which the characteristics of the regulator may be obtained by ruler and compass constructions. Brief attention is given to the errors inherent in the simplifications made in the analysis.
