Values for calculation

$ d_1 $ $ \mathrm{mm} $
$ d_2 $ $ \mathrm{mm} $
$ r_1 $ $ \mathrm{mm} $
$ r_2 $ $ \mathrm{mm} $

Calculation

Radius

$$r=\sqrt[3]{r_1^2\cdot r_2}$$

Diameter ratio

$$β=\cfrac{d_2}{d_1}$$

Jet contraction ratio

$$λ=1+0.622\cdot\left(1-0.3\cdot\sqrt{\cfrac{r}{d_2}}-0.7\cdot\cfrac{r}{d_2}\right)^4\cdot\left(1-0.215\cdot β^2-0.785\cdot β^5\right)$$

Loss coefficient

$\text{if }\ r/d_2\geq 1$
$$ζ=0.03\cdot\left(1-β\right)\cdot\left(1-β^4\right)$$
$\text{else}$
$$ζ=0.0696\cdot\left(1-0.569\cdot\cfrac{r}{d_2}\right)\cdot\left(1-\sqrt{\cfrac{r}{d_2}}\cdot β\right)\cdot\left(1-β^5\right)\cdot λ^2+\left(λ-1\right)^2$$

Discharge coefficient

$$μ=\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{ζ+1}}$$
