Flow Meter Analysis

This document summarizes the design of an orifice meter with vapor flow. Key details include a square-edged orifice plate with a 0.7492 inch diameter installed in a 1.939 inch pipe carrying gas at 2100 standard cubic meters per hour and 2500 mm of pressure drop at maximum flow. The document also provides base condition data, output summary details, and tables of results showing flow rate and other parameters at increasing pressure drops. Warnings are given that the pipe ID is less than the minimum recommended size.
