Wedge Wire Screen Cylinder – Entrance Velocity & Transmitting Capacity Calculation

We provide a simple calculation of porosity, transmitting capacity, and entrance velocity of wedge wire screen cylinders by entering values for outer diameter and length of the wedge wire screen cylinder, wire width, screen slot size, and well yield. If you have any other calculation problems, please contact us and we will quickly develop a solution for you.
