Orifice Velocity Calculator:
Enter the values of Orifice Flow rate OF(m3/s) & Orifice Area OA(m2) to determine the value of Orifice Velocity VO(m/s) .
Orifice Velocity Formula:
The Orifice Velocity VO(m/s) in meter per second is equal to the Orifice Flow rate OF(m3/s) in meter cube per second is Divided by the Orifice Area OA(m2) in meter square.
The Formula of Orifice Velocity can be writtern as,
VO(m/s) = OF(m3/s) / OA(m2)
Here,
VO(m/s) = Orifice Velocity in meter per second
OF(m3/s) = Orifice Flow rate in meter cube per second
OA(m2) = Orifice Area in meter square
Example problems for Orifice Velocity:
1)Calculate the Orifice Velocity and given for Orifice Flow rate = 45m3/s , Orifice Area = 3m2.
Solution
VO = OF / OA
VO = 45 / 3
VO = 15m/s.
2)Calculate the Orifice Area and given for Orifice Flow rate = 45m3/s , Orifice Velocity = 15m/s.
Solution
VO = OF / OA
15 = 45 / OA
OA = 3m2.
