Design issues of orifice plate flow meters
Thread Content
When designing orifice plate flow meters, are coefficients such as the discharge coefficient and diameter ratio incorporated into the orifice diameter d, so that the flow rate is dependent only on the pressure difference? It makes the device easy to use, but does this affect the measurement accuracy of the orifice plate, and by how much?
The orifice diameter of orifice plates seems to be **standardized and uniform; once the manufacturer provides you with the pressure difference, you can determine the flow rate, but the manufacturer will also provide you with a flow coefficient
