Need 'flow thru annulus' calculator

Need 'flow thru annulus' calculator

Need 'flow thru annulus' calculator

(OP)
HELP!!  
I need a spreadsheet (or formulas) to calculate and graph water flow thru an annulus formed by the gap between a circular orifice (square edged) surrounding a shaft.

Variables will be water pressure, orifice ID, orifice thickness, and shaft OD. Temperature will be constant (probably ~ 80F).

Ideally I'd like to make this a Map curve (3D) plotting flow vs diameter vs pressure but I can live with pressure as a constant.

I can dig thru Cameron’s but I figure somebody in our great group of Engineers probably already has one so I’ll post this in a couple forums.

THANKS!!
