What do you mean by full area orifice?

A full area orifice refers to a type of flow restriction where the cross-sectional area of the opening is equivalent to the maximum flow area of the pipe or duct it's integrated with. This design allows for optimal flow rates and minimizes pressure loss, making it efficient for fluid dynamics applications. Full area orifices are often used in various engineering applications, including hydraulic systems and flow measurement devices, to ensure accurate and effective flow management.
