Message Any flow rate with a stated test pressure can be manipulated to calculate the flow at any other test pressure with this formula:

CFM2 = CFM1*(P2/P1)^0.5

Where:

CFM2 = the flow rate of interest
CFM1 = the measured flow rate at X test pressure
P2 = the test pressure of interest
P1 = the test pressure used to generate CFM1


This works flawlessly up to the point where the velocity in the duct goes supersonic, which will never happen here.
