Orifice Air Discharge vs. Pressure

Nozzles discharging air volume.

The diagram below indicates the air leakage or air volume passing through orifices ranging size 1/64 - 1/4 inches. For well rounded nozzles multiply the vlues in the diagram with 0.97. For sharp edged nozzles multiply the values with 0.65.
