Orifice Flow Area Ratio Chart
In general, flow area ratio should be equal to material ratio but will be influenced by material viscosity. The ideal flow
area ratio is dependent on flow rates, material viscosity, and material ratio. Choose the correct size orifices to equal-
ize fluid pressures at the proportioner.
