Find the orifice ID for the application


You will need:
  • Q the application's flow in sccm
         standard conditions are 14.70 psia and 20oC)
  • Pi the inlet pressure in psia (atmosphere + psig)
  • K a constant for gases other than nitrogen
       =(28.0/MWgas))1/2 or see table
  • Po the outlet pressure in psia (if known)
         
  • Then calculate (Q/Pi) x (34.7/K)
        the nitrogen flow at 20 psig from the desired orifice
  • Look up the orifice ID from best match in Flow Table.

    Note: If Po > Pi /2 substitute Q/[Po(Pi -Po)]1/2 for (Q/Pi)and 17.35/K for 34.70/K.  
    Also, multiply Q by (Tgas/293)1/2 with T in Kelvins,
    if the temperature of the application gas differs significantly from 20oC.
