Question:

You are to specify an orifice meter for measuring the flow rate of a $35^{\circ} \mathrm{API}$ distillate $(\mathrm{SG}=0.85)$ flowing in a $2 \mathrm{in}$. sch 160 pipe at $70^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$. The maximum flow rate expected is $2000 \mathrm{gph}(\mathrm{gal} / \mathrm{h})$, and the available instrumentation for the differential pressure measurement has a limit of 2 psi. What size orifice should be installed?
