Equation Equation

C = (Q / A)^2 / (2 * g * h)
where:

Q is the flow rate in m^3/s

A is the cross-sectional area of the throat in m^2
g is the acceleration due to gravity in m/s^2
h is the differential pressure between the inlet
and throat in meters of fluid

C = Q / (Cd * A * sqrt(2gh))
 where:

Q is the flow rate in m^3/s

Cd is the discharge coefficient for the
orifice plate, which can be obtained
from a standard table or calculated
based on the orifice diameter and
Reynolds number of the fluid
A is the cross-sectional area of the
orifice in m^2
g is the acceleration due to gravity in
m/s^2
h is the differential pressure between
the upstream and downstream of the
orifice plate in meters of fluid
