Orifice Meter Performance Downstream of a Tube Bundle Flow Conditioner, Elbows, and a Tee (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Orifice Meter Performance Downstream of a Tube Bundle Flow Conditioner, Elbows, and a Tee
The flow conditioner used for the tests was a 19-tube, circular pattern, in-line unit, as illustrated in figure 2. This type of flow conditioner is held in the pipe with a set screw positioned at the center of the tube bundle. The set screw was located at the top of the horizontal meter tube. The flange pressure taps were located at the 9 o'clock position looking in the direction of flow.
The first objective of the test program was to determine the flow conditioner location where the calculated orifice discharge coefficient was equivalent to the discharge coefficient at the baseline. Four flow conditioner locations upstream of the orifice plate were selected. The closest was at seven pipe diameters because this is the minimum distance allowed[1] when using a beta ratio of The other locations were approximately 11, 17, and 27 pipe diameters. Data were taken using the meter with 46 pipe diameters of straight upstream pipe (the configuration shown in figure la) and with four orifice plates with beta ratios of and with the flow conditioner at 27 pipe diameters and the beta ratios of and a second test configuration used an oversized (6-inch) Sprenkle flow conditioner at 46 pipe diameters upstream of the orifice plate (the configuration shown in figure 1b).

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. 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. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781390290301_0
