Flow Through Orifices

Flow Through Orifices is a fundamental fluid mechanics phenomenon within control volume analysis denoting the streamline contraction and acceleration of fluid flowing through a small opening in a container or barrier, distinguished by its characteristic vena contracta, discharge coefficient, and dependence on pressure differential and orifice geometry.
