Synopsis

This book presents a detailed description of the data acquisition systems, procedures, and results used in the American Petroleum Institute-sponsored orifice discharge coefficient project performed in natural gas flows. These systems were designed to adhere to the general philosophy employed in a companion intermediate Reynolds number project conducted in water flows. The author provides a thorough examination of the measurement systems and an analysis of the uncertainty in orifice discharge coefficient values using the propagation-of-errors method. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of the insights presented, which have been utilized in the development of a state-of-the-art equation of state for natural gas and a corresponding-states model of transport properties. These insights have proven valuable in advancing the field and improving the accuracy of custody transfer measurements.
