Finding recommended value in table

Hi genious,

So I have this table with recommended [Kg/min] for each [m]. Forget about the [/min] column:

Problem is I need to know the [kg/min] value for 6m. You can see the [kg/min] for 10m is 30, and for 4m is 60. What I need to know is the kg/min related to 6m.

What do you say? The easiest way to know this value would be::wave:

Welcome to the Forums :wave:


It depends how accurate you want to be. For example, you could use linear interpolation; i.e. assume that between any two points you have a straight line. Thus the proportions on both sides will be the same, meaning that 6 is a third of the way from 4 to 10, so the answer lies a third of the way from 60 to 30 (=50).

Or, to visualise:


4 -> 60


6 -> 50


8 -> 40


10 -> 30




That's an approximate answer. If you want to do better, you will need to try to fit an equation to the data, such that when you plug in the numbers in the m column, you get out the numbers in the kg/min column.

Hi zaza

Thanks:wave:

I guess you can make it in a linear way, but let's say I consider the [/min] row now, with a value 3,95 for 6 m. Is it possible to know the [Kg/min] in this case?

Well, the /min and the kg/min are directly related aren't they?

The latter is 15 times the former.

lol, you're right. If /min is 3,95, then that makes Kg/min 59,25. Nice zaza
