Summary

Orifice coefficients are reported for four different size sharp-edged orifice plates calibrated with both water and lead-bismuth eutectic in a 1 1/2 inch pipe with flange taps. The resulting coefficients for the water and lead-bismuth are in agreement within the calculated accuracy of 3 per cent for each of the four sizes when compared at a constant orifice Reynolds number; the values obtained in the 1 1/2 inch pipe are within 2 per cent of those recommended by the ASME for a 2 inch standard pipe.
