Pressure across an orifice/choke plate
Hi, I've been trying to calculate the diameter for an orifice plate so that when inserted in a pipe it restricts the mass flow to the value I want (1.5 kg/s of compressed air, total pressure= 400 psia, T=300K). So essentially I am trying to design a choke plate. When a flow goes across an...- scienc
