4 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS4.1 Each flow meter application shall be reviewed carefully and the required

measurement accuracies shall be classified as listed below during the designstage.

The system includes primary element such as an orifice plate or turbine or positivedisplacement meter, a local readout device or transmitter and necessarypressure, temperature and component analysis measurements to correct theprimary element reading for varying physical parameters. The error figure citedincludes error of each individual component in the system.

This specification covers fluid flow measurement in pipes only. For open channelmeasurement the standards referred to in “the flow measurement engineeringhandbook by R.W. Miller” shall be consulted and the proposed method agreedwith PDVSA.

Measurement classification Maximum system error

1 LESS THAN 1.0%

2 LESS THAN 2.0%

3 > 2.0%

All measurements of fluids to and from a plant at its battery limit and all custodytransfer meters shall be class 1 designed in accordance with I.S.O.–5167 and/orANSI/API–2530 and/or ANSI/API MPMS 5.1–5.5.

All other measurements are class 3 except those identified as class 2 by processengineers in order to perform efficiency calculations of process plant or rotatingequipment.

4.2 Tables 1 and 2 on pages 5 and 6 list various types of primary elements, their typicalapplications and relative cost indication. This standard deals essentialy withorifice plate and differential pressure producing type primary elements.

4.3 Other flow elements and devices such as venturi (standard or low–loss),nozzle,pitot tube, annubar, turbine meter, vortex meter, positive displacement meter,magnetic flow meter, mass flow meter, rotameters, insertion type–turbine, hotwire, etc... shall be selected to meet particular service conditions such as lowpressure drop, high metering accuracy, flow in small or very large bore piping,ducts, underwater, etc. The meter size selected shall ensure linearity of themeasurement within the required accuracy limits to suit the minimum specifiedoperational flow rates. All such applications shall be discussed with and approvedby PDVSA. Also see paragraph 11.

4.4 Flow metering runs shall be supplied complete with prefabricated meter runs inaccordance with details in paragraphs 7 and 14.

4.5 The use of flow straightners shall be discussed with and approved by PDVSA. Thefinally selected item shall conform with I.S.O.–5167, section 6.3.

5 ORIFICE PLATES

5.1 Standard Orifice Plates (Ref. Fig. 2)

5.1.1 Plate type

Standard type orifice plates referred to in this document are flat circular plates ofuniform thickness, with a concentric hole (orifice). The hole is either square edgedon the upstream and downstream faces or with a 45 degree bevel on thedownstream edge, depending on the thickness of the plate.

Orifice plates may be of the Paddle or Slip type (circular with a tab or handle) foruse in orifice flanges, or Universal, for use in orifice fittings, carrier or ring type jointplate holders.

5.1.2 Orifice diameter

– The orifice diameter (d) is dependent on the particular application and shall bedetermined by calculation based on ISO 5167. Orifice sizing calculation andprogram shall be subject to PDVSA approval. Also see paragraph 10.0.

– For applications where the highest accuracy is required, the orifice diametershall be calculated so that maximum d/D ratio does not exceed 0.6. This willensure that the flow coefficient uncertainty is 0.6%.

– For β �

dD

ratios higher than 0.6, the % uncertainty is equal to the beta ratio.For less demanding lower accuracy applications, the d/D ratio shall not exceed0.7. The minimum d/D shall be 0.3.

5.1.3 Tolerance on specified orifice diameter

The orifice diameter shall be machined or ground to within + 0.01d (for d < 50 mm)or + 0.05 mm (for d > 50 mm) of the specified diameter determined in 5.5.5 above.The orifice bore shall be truly at right angles to the face of the plate. For highestaccuracy measurement the actual orifice diameter shall be measured inaccordance with ISO 5167 Section 7.1.7.2.

5.2 Non–Standard Orifice Bores

5.2.1 Other types of non–standard plates with special orifice bores such as segmental,eccentric, and quarter round bores can be used to meet the specific application.The field of application consist of viscous fluids, dirty fluids, two phase flow,entrained solids in liquid or gas flow stream. The error is 50% greater than thefigures listed for a standard concentric bore orifice plate.

a. Quadrant–Edged Orifice – The quadrant or quarter circle bore is an orifice wherethe inlet edge is rounded. The radius of the quarter circle bore is a function of thebeta ratio. This bore is specially designed for fluids of high viscosity and lowReynolds number such as heavy crudes, syrups and slurries. The key factors arecritical manufacturing dimensions and lower accuracy.

b. Conical Entrance Orifice – The quarter circle of the quadrant is replaced by aconical entrance and is more difficult to manufacture than the quadrant.Applications are similar to the above for use on viscous fluids with a very lowReynolds number.

c. Eccentric and Segmental Orifice – These orifices were developed to meter liquidscontaining sediment and gases entrained within liquids. Both the segment and theeccentric orifice are inscribed in a circle which is 98% of the pipe diameter.Construction materials, plate thickness, edge sharpness, etc. are identical tothose for the square edged concentric orifice. Sizing and flow equations are thesame as for other differential producers. The segmental orifice allows drainageof foreign material at the side of the pipe where the opening is located to a greaterextent than the eccentric orifice. This Characteristic makes it useful for measuringwet steam, liquids containing granular solids and oils containing water. For liquidscontaining gas or vapour the segment may be located at the top of the pipe.However, for these fluids, a concentric orifice located in a vertical pipe with upwardflow would be preferred for greater accuracy. In all other respects the eccentricorifice is superior to the segmental orifice.

5.3 Line Size LimitationsISO 5167 is applicable for line sizes 50 mm (2 in.) to 1200 mm (24 in.). Therecommendations of BS–1042 shall be followed for metering in line sizes 1 1/2inches and below. The metering section shall consist of a meter run and an orificeplate. The meter run and the orifice plate shall be procured as one complete unitand calibrated in a N.B.S. (now N.I.S.T.) approved flow laboratory and a calibrationcurve obtained for the assembly. See paragraph 7.1 for additional details.

5.4 MaterialsThe orifice plate material shall be compatible with the process fluid. The preferredmaterial is type 316 austenitic stainless steel. Type 304 stainless steel, Monel,Hastelloy or any other material shall be used to resist the fluid corrosion anderosion properties.

5.5 Design Considerations (Ref. Fig. 2)The following design considerations apply to both paddle type and universalplates unless otherwise specified.

5.5.1 Plate thickness

The thickness of the orifice plate (T) shall be in accordance with ISO 5167 Section7.1.4, viz. between e and 0.05D, where D is the internal diameter of the line takingnote of the fact that the minimum plate thickness as per ASME 1971 is as follows:

PIPE DIAMETER MINIMUM PLATE THICKNESS IN INCHES FOR DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE IN INCHES OF WATER

Inches 100” 200” 201–1000”

6” and below 0.125 0.125 0.125

8” and 10” 0.125 0.125 0.25

12” to 20” 0.25 0.25 0.375

> 24” 0.375 0.375 0.5

For systems with differential pressure up to 200 inches W.G., the thickness of theplate shall not be less than 0.0156D, where D is the internal diameter of the line,in order to prevent plastic buckling and elastic deformation in excess of thatallowed in ISO 5167 Section 7.1.1.3.

For systems with differential pressure greater than 201 inches W.G. the platethickness shall not be less than 0.02D.

See paragraph 5.5.3 for dimensions in metric units.

5.5.7 Drain and vent holes

– Where process conditions require the use of drain or vent holes they shall bein accordance with BS. 1042: Section 1.2: Part 3. The standard provides forthe use of these holes in line sizes greater than 4 inches only.

– Orifice plates with drain holes shall only be used in line sizes 100 mm (4 in.) orsmaller where it is essential to do so. The additional uncertainty in thedischarge coefficient arising from the use of a drain hole in these line sizes isnot quantified by the Standard.

– When installed, the plate should be positioned so that the drain hole is locatedat the lowest point on wet gas service and the highest point on liquid service withgas entrainment.

5.5.8 Orifice plate fabrication details

– Each and every new orifice plate shall be fabricated in accordance with detailson PDVSA drawing No. 1 and 2. The drawing No. 1 is in Spanish and drawingNo. 2 is in English. Copies of the drawings are included at the end of thisspecification.

The fabrication details shall be completed for each orifice plate in accordancewith the specific application requirement. The details in Tables 5 and 6 aid incompleting the dimensional data required on the drawing.

– The details of all existing orifice plates installed in the plant shall also betabulated on PDVSA drawing Nos. 1 and 2 and it is strongly suggested tofabricate a new replacement orifice plate in accordance with recommendationsas per this specification.

The details can be completed in either inches or millimetres. However it is stronglyrecommended to use the metric version only at the first available opportunity, forexample during fabrication of a replacement orifice plate.

The drawing can be used for either paddle type or universal type orifice plate.However if the installed plate is universal type, the word “universal” shall beindicated in bold large type letters on the drawing in order to facilitate easyidentification.

5.5.9 Marking

– For orifice plates with handles (paddle type), the orifice diameter, line size, platematerial, instrument tag number and the flange rating shall be stamped on theupstream face of the handle.

For the universal (circular) orifice plate, the orifice diameter, line size, platematerial, instrument tag number and the flange rating shall be stamped clearly onthe downstream face of the plate, as near to the outer edge as possible.
