How to round off the orifice diameter after calculating it using a flow-limiting orifice plate
Thread Content
The calculated pore size is 5.29 mm; should a 6 mm pore plate be chosen? What is the basis for this decision? Seeking advice from experts.
There is another question: under what conditions does flashing occur in a flow restriction orifice plate? If fluid flows into the tank behind the orifice plate, is it similar to the principle of throttling expansion?
For the orifice plate installed on the pump’s return line, is the pressure before the orifice plate the pump’s shut-off pressure or the normal outlet pressure of the pump?
Is it necessary to perform a pressure drop verification after selecting the orifice plate? How to verify? Can ASPen simulate orifice plate calculations?
Choose the value based on your actual needs and the required processing precision. It can’t be generalized.
