Calibration of orifice meters at low Reynolds numbers

Seventeen square-edged orifice plates were calibrated to study the effect of varying throat length, both in the absence and in the presence of geometrical similarity, on the coefficient of discharge for pipe Reynolds numbers from 20 to1 10,000. The experiments involved the use of hydraulically smoot...
