n: an important part of the primary element of an orifice meter installation that must create a known flow pattern for the fluid as it reaches the plate. It is the straight upstream pipe of the same size between the orifice and nearest pipe fitting and the similar downstream pipe between the orifice and nearest pipe fitting.

n: that part of an orifice meter installation that creates the pressure drop in the pipeline necessary for gas measurement;includes the meter tube, orifice plate, fitting, and the pressure taps.

n: a flow meter used to determine the rate of flow and employing a venturi tube as the primary element for creating differential pressures in flowing gases or liquids. Compare orifice meter.
