Orifice plates which are used in flow measurement are mostly concentric "square-edge" type.

The bore of the orifice is not constant when one moves from the upstream side to the downstream side along the cross section.

The bore size is constant for a few mm only and then expands till it reaches the downstream face. This inclined cut is called the bevel in an orifice.

The main reason to have a bevel in the orifice is to avoid turbulence thereby providing more accuracy to the measurement.

Restriction Orifice plates are not beveled since their intent is to reduce the pressure only.

How do you know if your orifice tube is in need of replacing?

If the low side has too much pressure and the system isn't cooling properly that would be one sign that the orifice is plugged up. Removing the orifice tube and inspecting it would be the best way. If the orifice tube is loaded with metal trash, the compressor is probably on its way out. Replace the compressor, accumulator and orifice now before the compressor fills the system with trash, this you don't want to happen.

What torch do you use in welding to produce a variety of flame sizes?

A welding torch as opposed to a cutting torch is more appropriate . Welding torches accommodate a variety of tip sizes designated by a number and have only one orifice (hole) for the flame. The smaller the number the smaller the tip orifice (hole) and a smaller flame. Larger numbers means larger hole sizes and larger flames. Sizes start at 0 and can be as large as 40 or more. The size of the tip is determined by the thickness of material to be welded/brazed. Thin materials would call for a small tip size, thick materials would need a larger tip size.
