About Orifice Gas Flow

1. This app requires the pipe diameter (D), orifice diameter (d), upstream pressure (P1), the differential pressure across the orifice (P1-P2), downstream temperature (T), gas specific gravity and gas isentropic expansion factor/heat capacity ratio (k=Cp/Cv).

2. The D and D/2 Taps are located at a distance of pipe diameter on the upstream side and half pipe diameter distance on the downstream side of the orifice plate.

3. The Flange Taps standard measures the pressure and differential at 1inch intervals from the orifice plate on either side.

4. The volumetric gas rate at pipe upstream conditions, mass flow rate and velocities through the pipe and orifice are also computed.

5. This app computes the volumetric gas flow rate at standard conditions of 60F and 14. 7 psia for field units and 0C and 1 atmosphere for SI units.

6. This app computes the gas flow rate using the orifice plate energy equation.

7. The Corner Taps are located just upstream and downstream of the orifice plate.

8. The readings can be converted as well as substituted for pressure, differential pressure and temperature for onward calculation of gas flow rate.

9. The intermediate calculations are also displayed for reference, such as Reynolds number, orifice coefficient, gas Z-factor and gas viscosity.

10. The tap location can be selected from the ISO 5167-2 specified: Flange Taps, Corner Taps, D and D/2 Taps and an option to specify manual tap locations.

11. The orifice discharge coefficient is calculated using the Reader-Harris/Gallagher (1998) equation.
