What do you mean with "normal pressure" or "normal flow"?

If you mean most common CPAP pressure (95% median on APAPs), maybe you should make a poll.

About normal flow - that's harder. If it's of any help, I remember that the vital capacity of an adult
is typically 4 - 5 litres.

A sleep study will indicate a nomal air flow needed to treat your apneas. Everyone is different. There is no "normal".
