  CFD simulation of methane flow through an orifice plate

  By pawan kasat

  Abstract: In this paper the effects of errors in the flow rate and discharge coefficient when Methane (CH4) flow through orifice plates with flange tapping has been investigated by the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The location of vena- contracta was also estimated from CFD simulations. Outcomes of the CFD simulations are in terms of profiles of pressure and velocity. In this study a numerical investigation of the flow characteristics behavior caused …
