An introduction to different types of fluid flowmeters - orifices, venturies, nozzles, rotameters, major friction loss in ducts, tubes and pipes tube as the upward pressure differential and buoyancy of the fluid overcome the effec.
This chapter describes the main design specifications for orifice plates (more precisely, orifice meters ): it points the reader to important parts of iso 5167 and gives reasons for the requirements in the standard. It covers the orifice plate (the circularity of the bore, the flatness, the parallelism of the two faces, the surface condition of the upstream face, and, above all, the edge sharpness), the pipe (the pressure tappings, the pipe roughness, the effect of upstream steps.
(the default calculation involves air passing through a medium-sized orifice in a 4 pipe, with answers rounded to 3 significant figures.
The head loss by friction in the inlet and outlet piping is not taken into account in coefficient of effect of the orifice thickness.
A second problem is that the inside of the pipe upstream of the orifice plate may roughen in service. Whereas the effect of rough pipe on an orifice plate is well known if the roughness is uniform round the pipe, often in practice the pipe only roughens over the bottom quarter of the pipe.
In other cases, the effect of pipe roughness is not as significant and friction pressures can be overpredicted with the same correction factor. So far, no well-established method has been presented in the literature to correct smooth-pipe to rough-pipe friction pressures for hydraulic fracturing (non-newtonian) fluids.
The orifice meter consists of a primary element and secondary element(s). The primary element includes a section of straight run pipe with a constrictive device, most commonly and orifice plate, which causes change in energy. The energy changes in the form of a loss in static pressure and increased velocity through the orificethe secondary.
Results of an experimental investigation into the effects of this pipe roughtness on the orifice discharge are presented, along with a review of some of the pertinent literature. Measurement errors of approximately 1 percent can result from using meter tubes that are too rough but still within the specification of the standards.
The radius of the quartercircle bore is a function of the orifice-to-pipe ratio (d/d). While passing the fluid through thick plate energy is lost in friction and heat.

The effect of pipe roughness and asymmetrical velocity distribution on the value of the discharge coefficients were investigated, and found to be of the same order as in the concentric orifice plates.

The discharge coefficient is a dimensionless number used to characterise the flow and pressure loss behaviour of nozzles and orifices in fluid systems. Orifices and nozzles are typically used to deliberately reduce pressure, restrict flow or to measure flow rate.
Dec 18, 2020 the flow coefficient determined for the six-hole orifice flow meter investigated was [13] explained this as a result of friction forces increase in long channels.
Attention has been paid to the effects of variation of orifice diameter-ratio (d/d) both on flow pattern and on discharge coefficient.
This paper describes the mass transfer characteristics on periodic roughness in a circular pipe and that downstream of an orifice. The mass transfer enhancement ratio of the rough pipe with respect to the smooth pipe are measured by the plaster dissolution method for various combinations of roughness height and wavelength of the periodic roughness, and the influence of roughness on the mass.

1 effect of pipe material the roughness of the piping attached to the fitting has no influence on the pressure drop through the fitting. However, because the equivalent length (l e /d) method expresses the pressure drop through the fitting in terms of the pressure drop through the attached piping, the pipe roughness does affect the length.
