Wang Bonian, Wang Dongwei, Lu Deyue, Zhu Jiashun

Abstract

A general form of discharge coefficient for entrance flowmeters, <i>c</i> = <i>c</i><sub>0</sub> - <i>c</i><sub>1</sub> <i>Re</i><sup><i>c</i><sub>2</sub></sup> is suggested and used to fit the calibrating data successfully. The main problem concerns to solve a set of nonlinear sequations, which is solved by a series of solutions of linear equations. This fitting equations are valuable and suitable for some other flowmeters.
