Flow Nozzle Maximum

Flow Nozzle Maximum

Flow Nozzle Maximum

(OP)
I have an existing flow nozzle in which I would like to determine the maximum flow.

Flow Nozzle
4"
Bore - 1.911"
C = 0.998
Beta = 0.4995

The transmitter in which the flow nozzle is piped to is calibrated as follows:

0 - 180000 lb/hr = 0 - 325 InWC

Fluid - Water
System Pressure - 1180 Psig
System Temp - 401 Deg F

I am planning on rescaling the transmitter to:

0 - 220000 lb/hr = 0 - 485.61 InWC

Question: Based on the information I provided, is there any way to calculate the maximum flow that this nozzle can accurately measure?

Thanks
