The modern form of the Saint-Venant − Wantzel formula for an outflow velocity of gas stream from flow element, system is presented. The taking into account of contact interaction of gas stream with the streamline surface in the form of the static head law has allowed finding the spatial-energy liaison in flow system. The
physically correct combination of mechanics of contact interaction and thermodynamics of fluid in one formula has allowed simultaneously to be liberated from the velocity coefficient and the discharge coefficient and also polytropic process. In the new form the formula has gained the key character for computation of parameters of motion and state of gas stream in the flow system.

Nomenclature
