RESISTANCE OF PERFORATED PLATES

 

Resistance coefficients for thin-walled perforated sheet or grid of
strips with sharp edged orifices (according to Fried & Idelchik).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conditions:

 

     Range of sheet length to hole diameter ratio, 0 < l/Dh < 0.015

     Reynolds number, Re > 105

 

Where:

    

 

   for is the area of one orifice.

 

The resistance coefficient is given by:
