Disadvantages:

Requires homogeneous fluid

Requires single phase fluid

Requires turbulent flow profile (Reynolds Number greater than or equal to 4000)

Requires axial velocity vector flow

Causes a pressure drop in fluid

Obstructs solids in fluid

How orifice meter can measure a preasre?

Orifice meter measures pressure by forcing fluid through a restriction (orifice plate) in the pipeline, causing a pressure drop. This pressure drop is proportional to the flow rate, which can be used to determine the pressure of the fluid. By measuring this pressure drop, the orifice meter can indirectly measure the pressure of the fluid in the pipeline.


What is orifice meter?

Orifice meter is a flow measuring device used for calculating the pressure drop,flow rate and behaviour of the fluid moving through the pipe.


What is the difference between a disadvantage and an advantage?

Advantage and disadvantage are complete opposites. An advantage is something which is beneficial to an individual. A disadvantage would be not to ones benefit.


What is the calibration curve of orifice meter?

The calibration curve for an orifice meter will depend on the size of the orifice, the size of the pipe and the pressure loss over the meter. Typical calibration curves have pressure (or head) loss on the vertical (y) axis and flow rate on the horizontal (x) axis.
