The flow rate is calculated by combining the orifice area, adjusted discharge coefficient, and all correction factors. This represents the gas flow rate at standard conditions (60°F, 1 atm).

\begin{equation}\label{eq:flow-calculations-flow-rate} \dot{V} = A \cdot C_{d,adj} \cdot \Delta P_{norm} \cdot f_T \cdot f_P\end{equation}
