Classification of Orifice Plates & Pressure Tappings in Orifice Plate

Orifice Plate Pressure Taps These allow the flow transmitter to tap into the pipe to measure maximum & minimum pressure levels within the flow rate. What are the types of pressure tapings allowed in the orifice plate? There are six different types of pressure taps used in affiliation with orifice plates Flange Taps Vena-Contracta Taps …

Advantages and Disadvantages of Orifice and Venturi meter

Orifice and venturi meter: Orifice and venturi meter works under the same principle, both meters creates a restriction in the flow channel and the pressure difference across the restriction is measured, which is proportional to the rate of discharge of flowing fluid through the pipeline. Advantages and disadvantages of Orifice and venturi meter are listed …

Different types of orifice plates

Introduction Orifice plates are mainly used for flow measurements. The orifice consists of a flat plate with a hole drilled in it. When a fluid passesthrough an orifice, the discharge is often considerably less than the amount calculated on the assumption that the energy is conserved and that the flow through the orifice is uniform and parallel.There are different types of orifice plates used for different fluids/process.  This reduction in flow is normally due to a contraction of the stream which takes place …
