Hello bhaskaran,

Here are some formula's (fairly generic) for vacuum pump sizing:

Each application for vacuum applications are usually quite unique (as most applications are).  :)

It is usually a blend of mathematics (supplied above) and experience (which usually has strengths and failures associated with it).  Do the best that you can.

Sincerely,

Eugene
