Orifice Calculation Sheet Service Fluid Oxygen: G Mass Flow Rate

This document contains an orifice calculation sheet to determine volumetric and mass flow rates of a fluid passing through an orifice plate. It lists input values like line diameters, pressures, fluid properties. It also shows intermediate calculations of velocities and flow coefficients. The final values given are the volumetric flow rate, mass flow rate in kg/s and kg/hr. Notes indicate that user inputs go in highlighted cells and iterative calculations should be enabled.
