Calculating Gas Flow Through Orifices — A Technical Guide

SPONSORED BY:

Medical applications dealing with gases are many. Precise flow is required for correct mixing of gases and for pneumatic equipment applications, as examples. There are several technical factors which must be considered when calculating gas flow through orifices, including pressure, temperature, type of gas, and others. Our Technical Guide details a number of formulas which can be used to extend orifice flow data beyond the included flow charts. Examples are shown for each, making this a valuable resource for medical OEMs and system designers.
