Abstract
The article analyses the impact of the Reynolds number on the estimated uncertainty of the mass flow rate measurement using an orifice plate. The objects of the research were two types of orifices: centric (ISA) and eccentric, with the diameter ratio β = 0.5. Studies were performed by Monte Carlo simulation and experiments for Reynolds numbers in the range 10,000 ≤ Re ≤ 20,000. The obtained results have shown that for both orifice types, the results obtained from the experiments and from the Monte Carlo simulation are similar. The nature of changes in the expanded uncertainty of the flow measurement is very similar for each type. For the both types of orifices, the value of the expanded uncertainty of the flow measurement increases linearly with the increasing Reynolds number.
