API water loss calculations
Input(s)
\(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}}\): Water Loss in \(7.5 \mathrm{~min}\left(\mathrm{~cm}^{3}\right)\)
\(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{sp}}\): Spurt Loss \(\left(\mathrm{cm}^{3}\right)\)
Output(s)
\(\mathrm{V}_{30}\): Water Loss \(\left(\mathrm{cm}^{3}\right)\)
Formula(s)
\[
\mathrm{V}_{30}=\left(2 * \mathrm{~V}_{\mathrm{a}}\right)-\left(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{sp}}\right)
\]
