1

Objectives • Working principle of orifice • Its advantages • Its disadvantages

AEI405.24

2

An orifice plate with vena contracta AEI405.24

3

Working of orifice plate. • The orifice plate is inserted in pipe line between two flanges. • The fluid flow through orifice causes increase in flow velocity and decrease in the pressure .

AEI405.24

4



At a particular position beyond the orifice plate the velocity is maximum and pressure is minimum



This position is called vena contracta.



before the vena contracta the fluid velocity decreases and pressure increases.



It reaches to a position where the velocity and pressure equal as upstream side. AEI405.24

5

The volume of flow can be determined by the equation –

AEI405.24

6

Where Qv = Volume flow rate; m3 / sec Cd = Discharge Coefficient A = Area of the orifice plate; m2

AEI405.24

7

Pd = Differential pressure; pascals, g = Accelaration due to gravity; m/sec2, ρ = Density of a fluid; kg/m3,

AEI405.24

8

E = Velocity approach factor

• By knowing the values of Cd, E, A, g, ρ and Pd the volume flow rate can be determined.
