Abstract: The orifice meter mn has become such a common tool of measurement that many gas men take it for granted, and give little thought to the engineering that was necessary for its existence. If we study the history of the orifice we find mention of its use for measuring water in early Egyptian and Greek history. In 1797 an Italian physicist, Giovanni B, Venturi, demonstrated through many experiments that fluids gain speed and lose pressure when passing through converging pipes.
