Orifice Plate Flow Meter

An orifice meter determines a gas or liquid flow-rate by using the Bernoulli’s principle, which acknowledges the relationship between the pressure and the velocity of the fluid. The device is installed in the flow pathway, allowing the fluid to pass through it. As a pressure drop occurs between the inlet and outlet section of the device, the magnitude of the drop will be used as a basis for calculating the flow rate. This working principle is identical to that of venturi meterhttps://www.silverinstruments.com/differential-pressure-flowmeter/orifice-plate-flow-meter.html
