Sizing Orifice

This document contains composition data and operating parameters for calculating gas flow through an orifice meter. It lists the mole fractions and molecular weights of various gas components in the inlet stream. It also provides specifications for the inlet pipe diameter, orifice diameter, flowing temperature and pressure, discharge coefficient, and other relevant parameters. Calculations are shown for determining the compressibility factor and final reported values include the gas compressibility, flow rate in mmscfd, and differential pressure.
