Oil pump capaacity - table or calculation

Oil pump capaacity - table or calculation

Oil pump capaacity - table or calculation

(OP)
I'm looking for a table or calculation that will allow me to determine the volume flow rate of an automotive gear-type oil pump.  I'm guessing that I need gear pitch. diameter, length and pump RPM.  Anything else?

Thanks,

Rink
