Abstract
A procedure is considered for correcting the flow coefficient of segmented diaphragms for the bluntness of the inlet-lip edge and the increased roughness of the supply conduit for flange and radial pressure tapping. The correction procedure is based on the results of an experiment carried out with segmented diaphragms with an opening of relative area of m=0.5–0.96.
