assumed to behave not unlike the jet issuing from the standard orifice
in the open air, it continues to converge after leaving the orifice until
the greatest contraction takes place at, let us say, section 2. The jet
then expands until normal flow takes place at section 3.
Let h,, h 2, and h, respectively be the pressure heads registered
by piezometer tubes inserted at sections 1, 2, and 3, and let it be as-
sumed that the pressure head h2 is the same as it would be if the pie-
zometer tube at section 2 were projecting through the wall of the pipe
to the periphery of the jet at the contracted section.
Neglecting pipe friction, the drop in pressure head between the
section of beginning of convergence and the section of greatest con-
traction (Fig. 1) is equal to the change in velocity head between the
two sections plus the loss in head due to the contraction of the jet.

taken to indicate the change in area of stream flow, the section of
greatest contraction being located where the pressure head is the
least. The terms normal uniform flow, beginning of convergence, sec-
tion of greatest contraction, and section where jet becomes fully ex-
panded and normal uniform flow is resumed are used for convenience
to describe the general phenomena at the several sections; they are not
to be taken to define strictly the conditions of flow. The general
behavior of the stream in the vicinity of the orifice was also studied.

section A being upstream from the orifice and the change in pressure
head between adjacent sections was observed at from 20 to 40 rates
of flow for each orifice. The maximum changes in pressure observed
ranged from 0.01 ft. to 50 ft.
Fig. 2 shows the apparatus for observing changes in pressure head
in the 12-inch pipe, the orifice plate being between the flanges near
the left of the picture and the direction of flow being from left to
right. At the sections adjacent to the orifice (section A and section
D, Table 2), gage connections were inserted both in the top and in the
bottom of the pipe, and the two nipples at each of these sections were
brought to a union. Two connections were also used at section I. At
other sections a single nipple was inserted in the bottom of the pipe.
The results of the observations are shown graphically in Fig. 3.
For ease in making comparison, changes in pressure head along the
pipe are shown in terms of the lost head caused by the orifice (ratio
of change in pressure head to lost head), an allowance for pipe friction
having been made,

eral behavior of the jet for one size of pipe and the general behavior

fluctuation is reached, and decreases thereafter as the down-
stream section approaches the section of resumed normal uni-
form flow.

general behavior of the flow passing through the orifice used with

accidental. Since the curves are plotted to logarithmic scale and have
a slope of 2, hb may be said to vary as V 2, which is in accord with the
theoretical expression, equation (1) p. 12. To make the theoretical
equation exactly fit the experimental curves it must be assumed that
for a particular size of orifice and pipe the coefficient of discharge
decreases slightly as the drop in pressure head increases, as may be
seen in Table 4.
The values of the coefficients of discharge in Table 4 were obtained
by substituting in equation (1) values of hb and V - taken from the

line for hb=50 ft.-are intended to show the extremes of the coefficients

which may possibly be used. For - greater than 3.0 the coefficient
of discharge increases nearly as a straight line, a peculiarity which
D.
may perhaps be explained through the fact that as - increases the
distance from the wall of the pipe to the periphery of the jet at
the section of greatest contraction also increases and there is con-
sequently less likelihood of the pressure at the wall of the pipe being
the same as that which exists at the periphery of the jet at the section
of greatest contraction. As - decreases from 3.00 the coefficient of

discharge increases, and the rate at which the coefficient changes for
D
small values of D still further emphasizes the impracticability of
attempting to make precise measurements of discharge when the di-
ameter of the orifice is greater than two-thirds the diameter of the pipe.
The C curves for the 4-inch pipe are typical of those for the 6-inch
and 12-inch for the lower values of hb and -- , but as hb becomes
DD
larger the rate of increase of C diminishes for the higher values of
d

crease of C.

nificant figure than the data may warrant in order to permit more
nearly accurate interpolation. In interpolating for other values of
d
or other sizes of pipe than those shown it may be assumed that the
velocity modulus varies as a straight line.
The computations for the velocity modulus were based on the
coefficients of discharge for a drop in pressure head of 1.0 ft. as shown
in Table 4 and by the curves of Figs. 9 and 10. (Fig. 10 is explained
in the following section.) Since K varies as C and since C decreases
as hb increases, the values of the velocity modulus are for a large drop
in pressure head slightly too large and for a small drop in pressure
head slightly too small; but within the limits hb=0.1 ft. to hbA 10 ft.,
which seem to be about the limits which would be found practicable
under ordinary conditions of flow, the error introduced by use of
Table 5 is negligible.

Equation (3) is too complicated an expression to be used readily
in computing. A simpler expression for the lost head and the dis-
charge is given by the empirical equation

the lost head is not an important factor, it is best that the drop in
pressure head be greater than 1.0 ft. so that the relative error of
measurement will be small, but the indications are that gage heights
as small as 0.2 ft. may be measured with good results, provided the
observer is experienced. Reliable observations may be taken with an
orifice having a diameter two-thirds that of the pipe, but the probable
error of reading the gage is likely to be several times what it is for the
smaller orifices, even though the gage be carefully throttled. An
orifice having a diameter much greater than two-thirds that of the
pipe should not be used except for approximate discharge measure-
ments.
As an illustrative example let it be required to measure the rate
of discharge through an 8-inch pipe the velocity in which varies
during the day through a large range, say from about 1 to 6 ft. per
sec. Should the pipe-orifice method be used and, if so, what size of
orifice should be installed? From Table 6 it will be noted that for

d
in the pipe, with a lost head of 0.46 ft. Likewise the drop in pres-
sure head is 23 ft. for a velocity of 6 ft. per sec. with a lost head of
17 ft. Assuming that a lost head of 10 ft. is the greatest that should
be allowed and that both a water gage and a mercury gage would be
used for a range in drop of pressure head of 23 ft., it is seen that an
THE PIPE ORIFICE FOR MEASURING FLOW OF WATER
D
orifice larger than 4 in. should be selected. One with -=1.5 gives a
range in drop in pressure head from 0.17 to 5.9 ft. corresponding to a
D
range in lost head of 0.09 to 3.2 ft. An orifice with- =1.5 would give
D
somewhat less nearly accurate results than one with -=2 (as already
discussed) but it would answer the purpose well, although perhaps it
D
would be advisable to use a slightly larger orifice, one with - =1.6 or
D 1.75.

18. Computations for Discharge.-Formost precise computations
use equation (2), p. 12, with coefficient of discharge taken from
Table 4, p. 30. For sizes of pipe other than those for which coeffi-
cients are shown use the diameter factor as explained in section 14,
p. 34. With -from 1.5 to 6 and with care in making the observa-
tions, the error introduced may be kept lower than 2 per cent. With
D
wider ranges of - or with very high or low values in drop in pressure
head this percentage will be increased, because of difficulties in read-
ing the gage properly.
For less precise computations use equation (4) or equation (5),
p. 33, with the proper velocity modulus taken from Table 5, p. 33.
D
With pipe from 4 to 12 inches in diameter and with D from 1.5 to 6,
the maximum error introduced will be. about 3 per cent. With wider
D
ranges of d or with very high or low values of drop in pressure head
this percentage will be correspondingly increased.
The use of equation (6), p. 35, eliminates variable coefficients.
For sizes of pipe from 4 to 12 inches, with - from 2 to 4 the maximum
D
error will not be greater than 3 per cent. With - less than 2 or
greater than 4 the error introduced may be 5 per cent or more.
Diagrams similar to Figs. 6, 7, and 8 may be constructed, from
which the discharge for the more common sizes of pipe, with the proper
ILLINOIS ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT STATION
D
range of -, may be obtained directly. The calculation, however,
from equations (4) and (5) and Tables 6 and 7 is very simple.
D
To determine the lost head, having given- and the drop in
pressure head, use equation (8), p. 36.
downstream from the orifice may not be appreciably altered from 0.4
D and that the distance from the orifice to the section upstream from
the orifice should not be less than 0.8 D. On account of pipe friction
this latter distance should not greatly exceed 0.8 D, particularly for
high velocities.
A differential gage of the U-tube type, similar to those shown in
Fig. 5, p. 24, answers all the requirements, is simple to construct, and
may be used with mercury or water. The gage board should be
graduated to 0.01 ft. and the graduations should extend under the
gage tubes. For flushing the gage and the connecting tubes, and for
regulating the height of the air columns when water is the differential,
there should be a pet cock at the end of each gage tube. Stop cocks
for throttling the gage should be placed near the ends of the gage
tubes as shown in Fig. 5.
A gage that may be quickly constructed in an emergency and
the essential parts of which are easily obtainable and readily portable
is shown in Fig. 13. The glass tubes need not be more than a foot
long. The piece of rubber tubing connecting the glass tubes makes it
possible to adjust the relative height of the tubes to suit the drop in
pressure head. The gage may be fixed to an ordinary leveling rod or
may be fixed to a plain board and the gage height measured with the
ordinary pocket rule. This form of gage is not suitable for high
pressures on account of the difficulty of making tight joints.
If the pressure openings are in the upper side of the pipe, it is
important that provision be made for removing air, which is likely
to become pocketed on either side of the orifice and in the gage con-
nections, without forcing it through the hose or pipe connecting the
pressure openings with the gage. If there are no pressure openings
in the upper side of the pipe, pet cocks should be inserted. When
opposite openings are inserted at each section provision should be
made for ascertaining whether or not the tubes are free from ob-
struction and full of water. Fig. 4, p. 23, illustrates an arrangement
of valves and pet cocks which makes this possible.
Preliminary to taking observations, with water flowing in the
pipe, all cocks should be opened and the pipe and gage connections
should be flushed. It is important that there should be no air in the
pipe in the vicinity of the orifice, nor in the gage connections, for the
presence of air is likely to change radically the gage reading.
If the foregoing precautions are observed under favorable condi-
tions, the rate of discharge as measured by a pipe orifice should be
accurate within 2 per cent. This means compares favorably with many
other methods of measuring water. For unfavorable conditions the
accuracy of the method will be as great as with most other methods
under similarly unfavorable conditions.
