| EXAMPLE 1
40 x 40 Mesh, 0.010" |
| To determine the open
area of 40 Mesh, 0.010" Wire Diameter |
| |
| 1 |
|
Multiply the Mesh
Count x Wire Diameter. |
40 x 0.010" = 0.400" |
| 2 |
|
Subtract the result
above from 1. |
1 - 0.400" = 0.600" |
| 3 |
|
Square the above
result (multiply by itself). |
0.600 x 0.600 = 0.36 |
| 4 |
|
Multiply the result
by 100. |
100 x 0.36 = 36 |
| 5 |
|
The solution should
be expressed as as: |
36% |
|
| |
| |
| EXAMPLE 2
100 x 100 Mesh, 0.0045" |
| To determine the open
area of 100 Mesh, 0.0045" Wire Diameter |
| |
| 1 |
|
Multiply the Mesh
Count x Wire Diameter. |
100 x 0.0045 = 0.45 |
| 2 |
|
Subtract the result
above from 1. |
1 - 0.450 = 0.55 |
| 3 |
|
Square the above
result (multiply by itself). |
0.55 x 0.55 = 0.3025 |
| 4 |
|
Multiply the result
by 100. |
100 x 0.3025 = 30.25 |
| 5 |
|
The solution should
be expressed as as: |
30.25% |
