What is the plural of orifice?

Orifices is the plural of orifice


What is the purpose of the vent and bleed hole in a orifice plate?

Bleed or Weep Holes are located at the elevational top or bottom of the Orifice Plate. The Weep Hole is tangent to a circle equal to 98% of the line I.D. DRAIN HOLES are located at the bottom of the Orifice Plate to prevent liquids in a gas or condensate in a steam flow from damming up behind the Orifice Plate. VENT HOLES are located at the top of the Orifice Plate to allow gases in a liquid flow to vent pass the Orifice Plate.


What standard is used for manufacturing and sizing the restriction Orifice plate and integral orifice?

As per R.W.Miller's hand book for flow measurement -- Bhadek


What is the order of efficiency of venturi meter orifice meter and rotoameter?

The orifice plate can easily be changed to accomodate widely different flow rates, whereas the throat diameter of a venturi is fixed, so that its range of flow rates is circumscribed by the practical limits of Dp.The orifice meter has a large permanent loss of pressure because of the presence of eddies on the downstream side of the orifice-plate; the shape of the venturi meter prevents the formation OS these eddies and greatly reduces the permanent loss.The orifice is cheap and easy to install. The venturi meter is expensive, as it must be carefully proportioned and fabricated. A home made orifice is often entirely satisfactory, whereas a venturi meter is practically always purchased from an instrument dealer.On the other hand, the head lost in the orifice for the same conditions as in the venturi is many times greater. The power lost is proportionally greater, and, when an orifice is inserted in a line carrying fluid continuously over long periods of time, the cost of the power may be out of all proportion to the saving in first cost. Orifices are therefore best used for testing purposes or other cases where the power lost is not a factor, as in steam lines.However, in spite of considerations of power loss, orifices are widely used, partly because of their greater flexibility, because installing a new orifice plate with a different opening is a simpler matter. The venturi meter can not be so altered. Venturi meters are used only for permanent installations.It should be noted that for a given pipe diameter and a given diameter of orifice opening or venturi throat, the reading of the venturi meter for a given velocity is to the reading of the orifice as (0.61/0.98)2, or 1:2.58.(i.e. orifice meter will show higher manometer reading for a given velocity than venturi meter).


What is nozzle pressure?

Pressure build up due to restricted orifice.
