How to calculate the amount of flow on a valve that is passing
(OP)
I am trying to calculate how much flow is going through a valve that i am suspecting is passing.
What formula can i use, please i need this urgent help. Thank you

If you are using a commercial valve, the manufacturer will have specifications on flow rate versus pressure head. If there is a liquid, there are always graduated cylinders and watches.

Most manufacturers don't admit their valves leak unless they have been damaged by you.

Do you have any idea how frustrating it is to have every valid suggestion shut down by some undisclosed information?
If you really want help, start with a complete description of your system.
If you don't have time to do that, then don't waste our time.

But if we really want to beat the snark... propane (among numerous other gases) is heavier than ambient air (50% heavier, in fact), which means one can, in actual fact, get a "bucket of gas". Of course, none of this was specified in the original postulation, so we're solving problems piecemeal.

I asked if she would like to see some liquid SO2.
She said that that would be interesting.
The next day, I showed her an open test tube half filled with very cold SO2.
Then she leaned over and looked down into the test tube and got a nose full of off gassing SO2.

I had been woking on refrigerator repair. In those days SO2 was available in one pound Cherge-a-cans.
I happened to have a can of SO2
I cooled it in the freezer overnight.
At school the next day,I used a Tap-a-can valve to pour liquid SO2 into a test tube.
It still wasn't cold enough and so it boiled. The boiling, self cooled it to about minus 20F and it stopped boiling.
It was slowly evaporating and out-gassing.
I didn't intend for the teacher to breath it. Unforeseen consequences.
A good whiff of SO2 is almost as bad as a blow to the nose.
Nasty stuff.

The sniff test - an opportunity to once again plug "Things I Won't Work With" by Derek Lowe. I'm surprised any chemistry teacher had not learned the "wave it gently to you" rather than "jam it into my snoot and snort it" technique.
