Title: API Orifice Meter Program

Abstract: The program has its primary objective to generate a data base of discharge coefficients and related parameters for flange tapped orifice meters. This data base will be used to develop an improved orifice equation leading to improved flow meter accuracy. Accurate measurement is required even more today than before because of the ever increasing price of the products bought and sold throughout the world using this differential fluid flow principle. An additional goal of this program is to use the improved orifice flow meter equation to update ANSI/API 2530, more commonly known as A.G.A. Report #3, into a more accurate and acceptable universal method of fluid flow measurement by orifice meter for custody transfer. This document today is being challenged through the International Standards Organization (ISO) by their issuance of their document 5167. The two standards, both of which are based on the same data, are in conflict and must be resolved internationally.
