Flow Moisture Point (FMP) Calculation

Online FMP calculator to calculate Transportable Moisture Limit. The Flow Moisture Point (FMP), or flow point, is a moisture content determined in two of the three TML test methods stated in Appendix 2 of the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes Code (IMSBC Code).

Formula:

$F M P = \frac{\frac{(m_{1} - m_{2})}{m_{1}} + \frac{(m_{3} - m_{4})}{m_{3}}}{2} \times 100$

Where:
m₁ = mass of wet sample just above the Flow Moisture Point (FMP),
m₂ = mass of dry sample just above the Flow Moisture Point (FMP),
m₃ = mass of wet sample just below the Flow Moisture Point (FMP), and
m₄ = mass of dry sample just below the Flow Moisture Point (FMP)
