    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes the geometry and method of use (installation and operating conditions) for pressure differential devices (including, but not limited to, orifice plates, flow nozzles, and venturi tubes) when installed in a closed conduit running full and used to determine the flow-rate of the fluid flowing in the conduit.
