Abstract
An experimental investigation has been performed to determine the effe ct of variation in the length-to-diameter ratios on the discharge char acteristics of saturated liquids passing through square edge orifices subjected to low pressure differentials. Experiments were performed to confirm reported results for sharp edge orifices and for round edge o rifices with appreciable ratios of inlet corner radius to orifice diam eter.
