Calculation of Bunging Pressure
This page either calculates the necessary pressure to get the requested carbonation at a certain temperature, or the resulting content of CO2 having a certain pressure and temperature.
Simply fill in either the target carbonation or the actual pressure and get the necessary pressure or the resulting content of CO2.
The calculation is done using the following formula: [1]
P = C / ( 10 * e ( -10,73797 + (2617,25 / ( T + 273,15 ) ) ) ) - 1,013
- P = Bunging pressure in bar
- C = CO2-content in g/l
- T = Temperature in °C
