ell 11/7/02 3:54PM Flow Liimiting Orifice Design.xls Mr. O'Brian, Here's the results of my Monday Morning noodling. Not very detailed on the descriptions I'm afraid. I used Crane 410 to come up with the flow formulas, and some excerpts from a paper I have on cavitation in valves, orifices, etc. I'll copy the stuff from the paper and bring it over. The stuff in red is input, the rest is calculated. I tried to maintain a margin to cavitation of -2 (last column). The second sheet is where I created the critical cavitation index curve from published data.

Tom Kendall, P.E.
