About this Item

Print on Demand. This book delves into the impact of flow disturbances upstream of an orifice plate on the accuracy of orifice meters. The author presents test results quantifying these effects. The book begins by outlining standards for acceptable orifice meter installations and summarizing previous research on flow conditioners. The author then describes the experimental program conducted to determine the minimum practical length of pipe required between a disturbance and the flow conditioner. The results indicate that an in-line tube bundle flow conditioner placed immediately downstream of the disturbance, 17 pipe diameters upstream of the orifice plate, provided negligible flow measurement error in most cases, even when the upstream pipe had a rougher surface finish. This book is a valuable resource for professionals seeking to improve the accuracy of orifice meters and optimize flow measurement systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

About this title

Synopsis

Orifice Meter Performance Downstream of a Tube Bundle Flow Conditioner, Elbows, and a Tee examines how a differential-pressure orifice meter behaves when placed downstream of complex piping components.

This study helps engineers understand how upstream devices influence flow readings and meter performance.

The work focuses on measuring and comparing discharge behavior across different beta ratios, pipe configurations, and upstream conditions. It presents experimental results and analysis related to flow conditioning, elbows, and tees, with an emphasis on practical implications for accurate flow measurement in real systems.

How beta ratio affects discharge coefficient when a tube bundle and fittings are present
Influence of upstream pipe length and layouts (straight pipe, elbows, tees) on meter performance
Comparative data for different upstream configurations to guide installation choices
Structured results suitable for engineers planning flow measurement installations

Ideal for readers working in instrumentation, process engineering, or anyone evaluating orifice meters in complex piping networks.
