For a flow control orifice plate, how is the pressure behind the plate determined?

I have a steam system for which I need to use a flow control orifice plate to maintain a constant flow rate. Given the pressure before the plate, the flow rate, and the pipe diameter, how can I calculate the size of the orifice? The most important thing is not knowing how to control the pressure after setting the plate; those with experience, please help me! Thank you!

I agree; the calculation formulas are available, but the pressure difference before and after needs to be entered. Is this not a iterative process?

Is there anyone who does this calculation often and can explain how to determine it? Same request
